I'm showing you my configuration here. Usually there is a "host1" and a
"host2", however in my case I have disconnected all drives from the first two
ide buses. Therefore when devfs creates the directory structure in dev, it
shows only the buses that have active devices attached.
[root@tamriel ide]# ls -ail
total 0
370 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Dec 31 1969 ./
1 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Dec 31 1969 ../
1073 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Feb 8 13:53 hd/
371 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Dec 31 1969 host2/
In your case below, you only have your first two IDE channels active with
devices; therefore host0 is the only one shown. Devfs ignores unused
resources.
The other directories you are showing below ( cd, hd, zip) are reserved areas
for more symlinks. Why, I'm not quite sure; I assumed that there would be no
reason not to dump all symlinks into the /dev dir proper until all system
apps become completely compatible with Devfs, and access the real devices
themselves, which is where we are going, btw.
In any case, give me a listing of everything under
/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0
and
/dev/ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0
We'll take it from there. :)
