minimum requirements:
- kernel 2.6.15 or later
- kernel must have sysfs, unix domain sockes and networking compiled in.
- proc must be mounted on /proc
- sysfs must be mounted on /sys
- Standard Lunar have all these out of the box.

before you start:
- Have Lunar rescue CD ready to use
- copy /etc/init.d/mount /etc/init.d/udev to safe place

start:
unpack both attachments to zlocal
lin udev
if udev lined OK do
lin lunar-init
(If you have some "hand made" non lunar default static device nodes
copy them to /lib/udev/devices.
Copy only devices you created manually. The rest is dynamically managed by 
udev and default static nodes are handled by udev module.)
reboot

after reboot:
-Lunar boots but I can not log in (and bunch of errors fly thru the screen):
0. no panic. Everything is in read-only mode. Press reset button.
1. boot from rescue CD and copy from safe place mount udev scripts 
to /etc/init.d/ by overwritting what is there.
2. reboot
3. Remove udev and lunar-init from zlocal
4. lin udev lunar-init
5. reboot
-Everyting works fine:
you can remove /sbin/udevstart or change udev in zlocal to version 118 and lin 
it. Only $VERSION and sha1: needs to be changed in DETAILS; udevstart line 
removed from BUILD - the rest of script is ready for 118.

let me know about results,
