OK, I think I'm making progress. It seems the following line in
oscarimage.master is used to determine which of the devices is a CD-Rom.
cdroms=`cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info 2>/dev/null | sed -ne "s/^drive
name:[[:space:]]*//p"`
On my system $cdrom expands to "sr0" not "sda" which is derived out of
/proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info
Then further on in the script is
for dev in `cat $diskfile | sed -ne "s/.*\($type[a-z]\+\).*/\1/p" |
sort -u` ; do
skip=0
for cdrom in $cdroms; do
if [ "$dev" = "$cdrom" ]; then
skip=1
break
fi
done
if [ $skip -eq 0 ]; then
logmsg " $dev"
eval DISK$DISKS=/dev/${dev}
DISKS=`expr $DISKS + 1`
fi
done
which is comparing "$dev" to "$cdroms". $dev is derived from
/proc/diskstats which makes no mention of "sr0" at all, only "sda", "sdb",
etc.
Is this a problem with device names being created by the SCSI driver, or
udev, or something else entirely? I'm getting closer, I can feel it...I
just don't know how to proceed.
