Hi to all,
I'm sorry but  I didn't spot this big fat bug until now,
Matteo Croce emailed me about it.
Please apply this patch as the devfsd applet is broken
and works only on a system booted with a standard devfsd
( the test I mostly did :-(   ), but if used at boot time
it DOESN'T WORK.

Thanks in advance and please apply
Tito
