Mounting issue (difficult)

Yesterday after upgrading to a new baselayout on gentoo, on startup I
got an error message on the line of the bootup sequence:

Mounting /dev on udev      [oops]

Mount failed

mount could not mount the drives, bad superblock, too many drives...

I reinstalled gentoo using version 2005.1 and sure enough I have the
EXACT same problem with this version (I was using 2005.0 before) even
though the rest of the system seems to work well after the install.

I tried re-emerging udev and looking through all the /etc/init.d
scripts, as well as /etc/fstab and /etc/mtab but nothing seems to stop
this message.  The system boots up in emergency single mode and does not
allow writing to the drive, as its mounted read only.

Where in the init scripts or on the system is the
Mounting /dev on udev      [oops]
line shown?

TIA,
David

tried to emerge udev, hotplug, coldplug, and set all of it up.  Nothing
worked.

See http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/udev-guide.xml - you could try
RC_DEVICE_TARBALL="no" in /etc/conf.d/rc

You got an udev-enabled kernel?

The kernel was udev enabled but the problem was I did not have hotplug
installed - I think 2005.1 defaults to udev and when I upgraded my base
layout but didn't have hotplug that's when things went wrong.
