The content of the /root/vdev-initramfs is for regenerating the
initrd.img; this is the reason why our keayboard and mouses still

I'm working on that. Now i have a computer rebuilding the packages of
linux-libre-4.6.2 with libudeb-compat-dev instead of libudev-dev, and i
also rebuilt initramfs-tools [*]

Hope it works :)

[*] You can generate the initrd.img running the
/root/vdev-initramfs/tools/mkinitramfs of the snapshot sent by Ralph.
