Tim,
I think you are confusing sysfs with environment variables. the %E{key}
is used for environment variables. The serial number is a SYSFS
attribute. Try changing %E{serial} to %s{serial} and see if it works.

That didn't work unfortunately, my rules file now looks like this:
KERNEL=="sd*", SUBSYSTEMS=="scsi", SYMLINK+="disknumber-%s{serial}"
Any other ideas?
Tim
It works here, I just made a /etc/udev/rules.d/10-test.rules file with
your above line.
Next I ran 'udevcontrol reload_rules'. I then connected my Kingston USB
drive and /dev/disknumber-5B7A1000021E appeared.
Do you have any other custom rules that are mangling this one?
Cheers,
Mark
