Yes udev is the tool you want to use. > If it isn't possible to modify the kernel name, I would create an > alternative /dev/disk/by-minidisk/dasd200 You cannot change the kernel name, but you can add as many symbolic links as you like. Lets say you can create a /dev/dasd200 symbolic link that points to /dev/dasda. The exact layout and format of the rules dedends on the distribution. If youhave RHEL4 or SLES9 you can have a look at the (now outdated) presentation: http://linuxvm.org/present/WAVV/udev.pdf If there is interest, I could try to create updated version for SLES10 and RHEL5 for a future conference.
