Since ID_PATH is no longer set for ATA devices, using ID_SERIAL would indeed be most likely the way to fix this. See /lib/udev/rules.d/75-cd-aliases-generator.rules: For ATA type devices, we would have to call write_cd_rules with by-id as parameter. Unfortunately this will not fix any existing /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules, and the result would most likely be that the symlinks are then named cdrw2, dvd2 etc. I don't see a good way to fixup existing entries in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules aside from nuking the file and letting it be recreated. But that opens another can of worms. Michael -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
