I appreciate the intention here but I'm not sure if this is really the 
appropriate place to put this; packagegroup-core-boot is supposed to only 
directly pull in the essentials required for booting. This will cause problems 
for those people using alternative device managers (e.g. busybox mdev) as 
well.

I'm not sure where this should go, but adding it to VIRTUAL-
RUNTIME_dev_manager (in the distro config?) could work. Anyone else have any 
better suggestion?

Cheers,
Paul
