it probably works in this case. i finally switched from ide to the ata_piix and now udev recognizes the cdrom/dvd (without making any changes to the scripts) and sets up the appropriate links. i don't think though udev would recognize the cd drive if one just had an old ide controller (i.e. if the cdrom device was /dev/hda for example. the logic is not there). --alex-- -- | I believe the moment is at hand when, by a paranoiac and active | | advance of the mind, it will be possible (simultaneously with | | automatism and other passive states) to systematize confusion | | and thus to help to discredit completely the world of reality. | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
