Udev Problem
Since my upgrade to Ubuntu Feisty, I am having trouble with udev:
Specifically, I am getting messages such as these:
--
[45887.989000] device-mapper: table: 254:3: linear: dm-linear: Device lookup failed
[45887.989000] device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table
--
I currently boot my Ubuntu using a mini cd that has a kernel, initrd and the tools necessary to decrypt and boot my encrypted swap and root. This problem with udev has only started since my upgrade to feisty.
The kernel version that I am using is 2.6.18 with some patches that I needed to apply for my last laptop to be able to read sd cards.
Furthermore, if I don't kill udevd, it eats up my cpu ressources and spits out messages as described above.
Any advice would be appreciated.
