Delete the links in /etc/dev and redo the links pointing to the correct /dev/cdroms/ I always use mc to cd to the correct dir and make the links. You could just do the links via a command line: ln [OPTION]... TARGET [LINK_NAME] ln [OPTION]... TARGET... DIRECTORY ln [OPTION]... --target-directory=DIRECTORY TARGET...
