There's got to be a better way than a reboot. There's only one
operating system that requires a reboot to accomplish system
tasks. Let's keep it that way. :-)
Then don't reboot. Your devices are already set up by udev. All you
have to do is kill udevd and replace your scripts. You could run your
new script for good measure, but it would just overwrite the device
nodes that already existed.
I would reboot, though, since that's the only time a static device
script would be run. I'd want to make sure it worked.
