The /dev/discs nodes were a convention of devfs, and _never_ standard. >From the ChangeLog (there are many other entries BTW): *udev-064-r1 (31 Jul 2005) 31 Jul 2005; Greg Kroah-Hartman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> +files/udev.rules-064-r1, +udev-064-r1.ebuild: Start moving to a sane /dev naming scheme. This release removes the devfs names for the tty and consolde devices, and the symlinks that were implementing the LSB standard names. We only implement the LSB names now, which saves over 3Mb of RAM on /dev. -Richard -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
