You bet it sucks :) I played around a bit and found that it happens
sometimes, sometimes it doesn't. I don't know what it depends on. Even
with the SAME kernel -- sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

I did that. If the device files are not created I get NO logfile. If
the bootup works correctly, I get a log (attached).
