I bet you do REGISTER hdc ... I already said once it is questionable. /dev/hdc is compatibility link managed by devfsd and it is NEVER registered. The reason it appears to work is when S99devfsd HUPs devfsd it walks down /dev and _simulates_ REGISTER event for every node found. But you cannot rely on it. Actually you cannot even rely on the /dev/hdc existence. I guess devfssymlink should resolve compatibility names and put true devfs names in configuration, like REGISTER ide/... -andrej
