How do I get /dev entries onto a livecd image?
Resolved.
Was unrelated to catalyst/udev. My kernel config was missing enabling of
the hardware watchdog timer specific to my machine. I didn't suspect it
because when I looked into catalyst's tmp/ folder I saw the device entry
exists.
Once the kernel was set-up correctly, there was no need for any further
udev configuration.
Thanks!

Sorry. Wrong there. I meant I want /dev/watchdog inside the loop, in the
squashfs image.
Does that change the answer?
No, it doesn't. The only reason it works on your normal install is because a
tmpfs is already mounted on /dev and udev is managing it. In the case of a
LiveCD, it doesn't matter what you put in /dev in the squashfs, since it gets
"hidden" when the tmpfs is mounted over it at boottime.
If you want the udev rule inside the squashfs, use livecd/root_overlay,
instead.
