recently, i had problem to use alpine linux.
i try to figure out now.
during alpine linux installation, most problem was xorg.
screen doesn't work, or keyboard/mouse doesn't reponse, etc.
behind of all this problem, there is udev i guess.

http://git.alpinelinux.org/cgit/alpine-conf/tree/setup-xorg-base.in

# setup and start udev
rc-update -q del mdev sysinit
rc-update -q add udev sysinit
rc-update -q add udev-postmount default

i could be wrong but i recommend to use mdev instead of udev.
