I can't boot the system with vdev:

     Booting the kernel.

     [ .....  ]   Failed to execute / init  ( error - 13 )

     can't run  '/etc/init.d/rsC'   No such file or directory

     Please press 'enter' to activate the console .

And my keyboard doesn't work.

I uploaded my latest packages of vdev to:

http://gnuinos.org/unsystemd/

They are for i386, and i also included the initramfs-tools. I made some
changes in the makefile of libudev-compat and know libudev.so.1 points
to libudv.so.1.5.2:

libudev.so.1 --> libudev.so.1.5.2

There is also another libudev.so pointing to libudev.so.1:

libudev.so --> libudev.so.1

I did something similar in fskit mounths ago [*]

Are you starting vdev in live-mode?

Cheers,

Aitor.
