Bug#383730: initramfs-tools: incompatible with udev 0.097-1

[Nathaniel Pierce <nwpierce@comcast.net>]

Ditto - udev is calling getpwnam and getgrnam and is failing. I tried  
adding a hook script to copy my /etc/passwd and /etc/group files to  
$DESTROOT/etc, but that did no good. I tried adding /etc/ 
nsswitch.conf as well, but it didn't help either. I'm not sure what  
to try next.

Also, not sure if this is related to udev starting up angrily, but  
kernel.hotplug no longer getting set properly. My firmware for my  
wireless driver (acx) won't load unless I do:
	echo /lib/udev/firmware.agent > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug (or use  
sysctl)

That may be specific to the udev package.

Running:
	initramfs-tools 0.75
	udev 0.097-1.
	custom kernel pkg 2.6.17.7

cheers,
