Point taken. Some comments, though: 1. In a previous version or release of udev, there was a script called cdsymlinks.sh that seemed to get it right. It is not there now.
2. Making a set of rules in /etc/udev/rules.d seemed the obvious choice, but the script 60-symlinks.rules seemed to interfere with any rules I wrote. My workaround was to have a script called /etc/init.d/udev-workaround that did cd /dev ln -sf hdc cdrom ln -sf hdc cdrom0 ln -sf hdc dvd ln -sf hdd cdrom1 and to have in /etc/rc2.d a symlink to the above script called S99udev-workaround 3. It works fine but I would appreciate knowing how to get this to happen from a udev script that does not get interfered with by /etc/udev/rules.d/60-symlinks.rules 4. It appears that udev is quite volatile. Thanks. -- udev symlinks for /dev/cd* and /dev/dvd* are wrong in Dapper https://launchpad.net/bugs/52492 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
