Package: cdrom
Severity: important
for some strange reason udev assumes all cdrom devices are scsi so as a
consequence my ide cdrom drive is being ignored. i modified 60-cdrom_id.rules
to check for ide drives as well and now the cdrom/dvd links are being created
once again. this is my modified cd rulse file:
ACTION=="remove", GOTO="cdrom_end"
SUBSYSTEM!="block", GOTO="cdrom_end"
KERNEL!="sr[0-9]*|xvd*|hd*", GOTO="cdrom_end"
ENV{DEVTYPE}!="disk", GOTO="cdrom_end"
# this is only a button press event
ENV{DISK_EJECT_REQUEST}=="?*", GOTO="cdrom_end"
KERNEL=="sr[0-9]*", ENV{ID_CDROM}="1"
IMPORT{program}="cdrom_id $tempnode"
KERNEL=="hd[a-z]*", ENV{ID_CDROM}="1"
IMPORT{program}="cdrom_id $tempnode"
LABEL="cdrom_end"
not sure if this is the best solution but i got tired of having to create
the links by hand.

Indeed, the old ide driver is not supported anymore by udev.

I do no believe that there are any occurences of hd* with modern
kernels as long as you use the right drivers.
