Subject: [PATCH] host/rootfs: create groups assumed by udev
Date: Thu,  4 Dec 2025 16:04:10 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251204152239.1508396-1-hi@alyssa.is> (raw)

We don't really care about these groups, but if they don't exist, udev
will also not apply the "other" modes from rules, leaving
e.g. /dev/kvm root-only when it should be globally read/write.

tty is set to 5, conforming with the systemd convention.

Demi, this should avoid the need to add a udev rule for /dev/kvm.
