Crux. I did a lot on my system  these  days.  Especially  Juergen
Daubert  explained  some concepts of Crux to me. This made things
much clearer.

There was this udev problem I encountered after  the  upgrade  to
version  169. I found out that it had been a timing thing. When I
added a sleep after udev_start in /etc/rc, everything went  well.
It  also went well when I enabled DEVTMPFS in the kernel. The is-
sue is fixed in udev-170.


Creating a Crux port is done quickly. I did so for curlftpfs  ...
but realized later that there are four such ports in various user
repos. I'd better take a look first, next time.

However, curlftpfs had been presented to me by henry. What a nice
tool!  Even ncftp is lame compared to it. Actually the concept of
curlftpfs is just an basic approach  of  Plan9  brought  back  to
Unix.  Shame  on me that I praise curlftpfs. I should rather say:
``Finally, Unix does it the ``right''  way  too.  Did  it  really
needed to take this long?''

I'm curious if and when the socket stuff will become as simple as
in Plan9, too.
