I'm not sure if this is the best place to post this but, I think it is a usability issue.
I now have 3 external removable storage devices, 1 acomdata 80 gig firewire drive (dev1), 1 firewire enclosure with a 30gig drive in it (dev2), and 1 usb smartmedia card reader (dev3). I have all 3 working fine with the latest cooker + some firewire cvs drivers (so the acomdata drive gets recognized). Problem: when ever I plug a device in it become sda, and then add more they becoe sdb,c...... say I have all 3 devices plugged in, then I have sda, sdb, and sdc. problem is dev3 is fat (smartmedia card) dev1 has ext3 and fat32 partitions on it and dev2 has just one ext3 partition on it. how do I set up fstab and I guess devfs so that no mater how many devices I have plugged in, and no matter what order they were plugged in, all I have to do is type: mount /mnt/smartmedia -> dev3 mounts mount /mnt/fire1 -> dev1 part1 mounts mount /mnt/fire2 -> dev1 part2 mounts mount /mnt/fire3 -> dev2 part1 mounts
