I didn't configure udev, it just works.  What makes you think yours 
needs configuring (be specific)?

Actually, I did make a local.rules file so that my two USB drives would 
get specific devices that I could use in fstab.  But they worked fine 
without that if I used the generic names (e.g. /dev/sda1).

init.d/udev is in the udev package so if you installed the package and 
didn't get the script maybe you should investigate the package's state 
and what happened to the install.
