Because...
1. of that error:
====
Starting mdev...
sh: can't open '/proc/sys/kernel/hotplug': No such file or directory
====

2. and because I don't actually need hotplugging, since the appliance
is a closed-box, so users can't actually (un)plug devices anyway.

I just needed mdev so that Linux would create the right dev nodes for
Ubi.

Thank you.
