Yes, that is how udev works. I catches the hotplug messages and acts on them to add and remove your /dev nodes.

/sbin/udevstart : I miss something

Posted Mar 2, 2005 12:39 UTC (Wed) by danielos (subscriber, #6053) [Link]

Well, I tried to use /sbin/udevstart as hotplug multiplexer, udev version 054. It does not create device node and do not load modules.

I just do not understand if udevstart do all work and then works as the hotplug multiplexer and then call udevsend that redo the same work, or if udevsend understand it and stop.
