7.9.1. Installation of Eudev

Prepare Eudev for compilation: 

./configure --prefix=/tools --build=${CLFS_HOST} \
    --host=${CLFS_TARGET} --libdir=/tools/lib64 --with-rootlibdir=/tools/lib64 \
    --disable-introspection --disable-gtk-doc-html --disable-gudev \
    --disable-keymap --with-firmware-path=/lib/firmware --enable-libkmod

Compile the package: 

make

Install the package: 

make install

Create a dummy rule so that Eudev will name ethernet devices properly for the system. 

echo "# dummy, so that network is once again on eth*" > \
    /tools/etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-name-slot.rules
