What I did was write a 10-local.rules file following the model at reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html. So now I get the proper symlinks: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ ls -l /dev/cd* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 10 10:21 /dev/cdrom -> hdc [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ ls -l /dev/dvd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 10 10:21 /dev/dvd -> hdd plus these unwanted ones which are the result of 70-persistent-cd.rules lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 10 10:21 /dev/cdrom4 -> hdc lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 10 10:21 /dev/cdrom5 -> hdd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 10 10:21 /dev/cdrw4 -> hdc question is, how do I turn off persistent-cd rules? Even if I delete it another is generated when the PC boots. Do I delete /lib/udev*/write_cd_rules? According to the FAQ persistence is most useful for devices that are likely to be plugged in and out fairly often. I don't expect to do that with the optical drives.
