Thanks! It works.

One typo on line 20:
cp {vdev-snapshot,}/usr/et/vdev/acls/00-whitelist-root.acl

should be /usr/etc not /usr/et

I'm testing on a system that doesn't have a display manager. Things are
working on the console. When I run startx and get to the desktop, touchpad
and mouse don't work. Seems like the keyboard doesn't work then, except
for ctrl-alt-sysrq-k to kill the xsession.

ps ax shows that vdev is not running. If I start it with '/etc/init.d/vdev
start' that doesn't fix the mouse and keyboard problem.

When I run 'tail -f /var/log/messages' I can see the connect/disconnect
messages when I plug/unplug the mouse. It also sees when I plug in a usb
thumb drive, but it's not getting a device name. (it should be /dev/sdb)
and fdisk -l doesn't show it.

I just tried booting with init=/bin/bash and starting vdev manually. vdev
exits with an error:

libudev/util.c:0156 vdev_log_redirect: ERROR
fopen('/usr/var/log/vdev/vdevd.log') rc = -30
main.c:0094 main: ERROR vdev_log_redirect('/usr/var/log/vdev/vdevd.log')
rc = -30
and then DEBUG vdev shutdown

if I do 'exec /sbin/init' I get the same errors for vdev, and then it
continues to boot.

What next?
