Hi list, I have problems with latest (or should I say any) version of devfs. I have two CDROMs, /dev/hdc, /dev/hdd
Without devfs, everything works well. When devfs is enabled, though, I cannot mount or access the second CDROM. Devfs reports mu CDROMs as /dev/cdrom1, /dev/cdrom2, but when I try to mount the cdrom2, it always tries to mount cdrom1 (or /dev/hdc). The same goes for /dev/cdrom3 .. /dev/cdrom6 (I don't have anything like this installed) - always accessing /dev/cdrom1 (dev/hdc) ! BTW, /dev/cdrom link is broken altogether (points to '../cdroms/cdrom0' instead of 'cdroms/cdrom0)'! Details: Mandrake 8.1 devfsd-1.3.18-17mdk kernel 2.4.16-5 (occurs on 2.4.8-26 and 2.4.13-8 as well, so I don't think this matters) The CDROMs are: Plextor 16/10/40A (dev/hdc) NEC DV-5800A Also, SCSI IDE emulation is broken. On my system with devfs enabled (as opposed to disabled), I cannot: - burn CD-ROMS (broken SCSI emulation, works with devfs disabled) - watch DVDs (cannot access /dev/hdd DVD) PS: /etc/fstab is correct, I can do all of the above with devfs disabled.
