And again the same idiotic and childish style of argumentation. It has
nothing to do with Poettering. Please come up with real arguments
instead of just saying systemd is broken and the author is an idiot.

There is tons of stuff that you would need to fix, not just udev
stuff. See [1].

What? I'm not claiming the opposite, I am claiming facts. Is it false
that all these binaries mentioned in [1] are required for early boot
up and are located in /usr? Just check it yourself.

Sorry, but I wouldn't touch code with a ten-feet pole who from someone
is so naive claiming that he knows more about writing an open source
BIOS than the people at Coreboot who have been doing that since
1999. I started right out laughing when he claiming Coreboot is a
Linux distribution and starting a x86 computer just involves setting
up a few interrupt vectors.
I know several people in the Coreboot project personal and the
claims that Richard makes in [2] are just ridiculous and show the same
attitude he has towards working on udev.
Even Greg is ridiculing their work [3]. And he should know, he came up
with udev in the first place and he is even a Gentoo developer. Don't
you think he understands you a little more than anyone else, so he can
assess when people do the right things with the code or not?
