mdev with hda's

Hi all, I'm still working with mdev and attached storage devices (from
the previous thread). Currently, I've created a bash script that gets
called to process all attached storage devices and everything seems to
work just fine with USB, but for any fixed disks the script bombs
horribly. As a result, I just started with the most basic first step of
exporting the mdev environment to a text file to see what values are
being passed to the script. To my amazement, it appears that the actual
shell environment is being exported and not the mdev environment. Has
anyone else encountered this or is this a bug with busyboxes mdev? I'll
include the below mdev.conf file entries to show what's going on.
(sd[a-z]) root:users 660 */etc/mdev/storage disk
(sd[a-z])([0-9]+) root:users 660 */etc/mdev/storage disk
(hd[a-z]) root:users 660 @env >> /tmp/parent
(hd[a-z])([0-9]+) root:users 660 @env >> /tmp/child
The /tmp/parent and /tmp/child text files contain all the shell
environment variables with the additional "MDEV" variable added. At
this point, I'm obviously working solely with mdev and not my script to
process hda devices. Any ideas?
