Hi list, I have a USB device which consists of three logical units. unit_1 registers as a cdrom device, unit_2 as disk device, unit_3 is a "hidden" partition AFAIK only accessible by a special windows software (never tried).
I have an installer which requires to boot from unit_1 (logical CDROM) and access unit_2 later on. Installation will go onto the first block device. I have to use the usb-storage driver for both unit_1 and unit_2 because of its support for the builtin USB-to-IDE bridge. I have build usb-storage statically into kernel because that's the easiest way for me to boot from unit_1. Problem: currently unit_2 is assigned as /dev/sda, another SCSI device is assigned /dev/sdb (driver as module). Is there a way for usb-storage to not use /dev/sda for its block device and instead start from a user-defined block device, such as /dev/sdb?
