don't do that, i see in my logs creation of /dev/sda and /dev/sg0 but the
kernel does not create /dev/sda1 I give you my logs (with usbstorage

I guess I had this one too, is used by mistake CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SG=y and then upon device plug-in kernel recognized two devices: /dev/sda a /dev/sg0.
Problem is udev picked device class (major 21 instead of 7 for disk IIRC) of the latter /dev/sg0 while creating /dev/myshinynewusbstick, so this device not being disk was not mountable. I then disabled CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SG and then only /dev/sda got detected, so udev was not confused anymore.
Alan (and all gentlemen), please do you think this is a udev issue I should report?
P.S. Alan, sorry for direct mail, I just wanted to be sure this issue won't get overlooked.

Hi,
I tried this on the rc2-bk8 kernel alas for my system it does not work. Interestingly though the major number for my device nodes using this kernel is 8 not 7 as stated by Vitezslav. Not sure whether this helps.
Also I still get two /dev/sg devices created by udev but this might be distro dependent.
Regards,
Colin Close
