[Fedora-livecd-list] [PATCH] mkliveinitrd: wait for udev queue to clear before killing udevd

[Alan Pevec]

mkliveinitrd: wait for udev queue to clear before killing udevd

udevd doesn't seem to cleanup on kill, so let it clear events from /dev/.udev/queue/

Or should this be filed as udevd bug (cleanup .udev/queue/ on startup and/or kill) ?
