Just one of my machines to 2.6.22.1, and got this during boot..

Starting udev: udevd-event[619]: udev_node_symlink: symlink(../../sdc/dev/disk/by-uuid/2d773baf-8174-10a6-14db-a78e0e676e89) failed: File exists

Under 2.6.21, all was fine.

sdc is one disk of a 3 disk raid5 set.
The raidset still manages to come up despite this.

This is a Fedora 7 box, with udev-106-4.1.fc7

What changed this time?

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_BSG=y?

There's a name-clash, because bsg tries to create devices with the same name.
James sent a patch, it's on lkml.
