I'm a little curious about the reasoning for this.  I wrote a few blog
posts (long ago) about uncertainty in the state of ASMLib... but these
days I'm not so convinced anymore that it's worth avoiding.  UDEV is
kinda nice if you understand it... but the documentation is poor and
frankly I've met precious few who do understand it.  I tend to tell most
people now to just use ASMLib unless they already know UDEV.  I'm
skeptical that it's worth the time required to learn it.
