Bug Description
Binary package hint: udev
neither udev nor aoe-tools include a rules entry for the AOE driver, thus aoetools does not work as distributed on Ubuntu Hardy.
a 60-aoe.rules such as follows can be included:
# These rules tell udev what device nodes to create for aoe support.
# They may be installed along the following lines. Check the section
# 8 udev manpage to see whether your udev supports SUBSYSTEM, and
# whether it uses one or two equal signs for SUBSYSTEM and KERNEL.
# aoe char devices
SUBSYSTEM=="aoe", KERNEL=="discover", NAME="etherd/%k", GROUP="disk", MODE="0220"
SUBSYSTEM=="aoe", KERNEL=="err", NAME="etherd/%k", GROUP="disk", MODE="0440"
SUBSYSTEM=="aoe", KERNEL=
SUBSYSTEM=="aoe", KERNEL=
SUBSYSTEM=="aoe", KERNEL=="flush", NAME="etherd/%k", GROUP="disk", MODE="0220"
# aoe block devices
KERNEL=="etherd*", NAME="%k", GROUP="disk"

Without these rules you can't use aoe-discover or aoe-revalidate, so it's more than a wishlist item, at least for people using AoE.
(The nodes are still created, but in /dev/ instead of /dev/etherd, so it's also a good think for others because /dev is cleaner)
These rules work fine. Please include them.
Thanks!
