Thanks for the suggestion and I'll look into it. As for now, my system
works well without udev, and I just wanted to test kvm without the
"dynamic" /dev/kvm feature if possible.

Would it be possible to create /dev/kvm once and let it stay there
permanently? How about a switch for non-udev system?

Thanks,
Jeff.
