# Operating systems without udev
|
|
|
|
Some operating systems do not come with `udev` out of the box, for example Alpine Linux. In these instances you will not be able to bind `/run/udev` to the container for sharing device metadata. Some operating systems offer `udev` as a package that can be installed separately, or an alternative (such as `eudev` in the case of Alpine Linux) that provides the same functionality.
|
|
|
|
To install `eudev` in Alpine Linux (run as root):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
apk add eudev
|
|
setup-udev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once your `udev` implementation is installed, create `/run/udev` with the following command:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
udevadm trigger
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On Alpine Linux, this also has the benefit of creating symlinks to device serial numbers in `/dev/disk/by-id`.
