Hello,

I have a simple question = I've heard rumours here and there that
SYSFS is deprecated and forthcoming kernels won't use it

Nope, not true at all. Where did you hear those rumors so that I can go
after them with a big stick and squash them?

Sorry, these must have been some random rumours in my head which came to being during wild Debian upgrades sessions I had.

I even see some warning during boot.

What specific warning are you seeing?

See my parallel email. I didn't understand them, this - as it appeared - is udev question.

Is it true? And where to disable it in the config?

If you want to disable sysfs, you can, it's in the config file, but you
have to really know what you are doing otherwise you will usually end up
with a system that does not boot properly.

Now I see, thanks for the reply.
