Bug#791430: udev tries to make /dev/sr? nodes only when cdrom in drive, causing problems
I booted directly to a shell and started the system by hand. After mounting devtmpfs, /dev/sr? were not created. Started udevd and they were. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

Additional information gained from experiment: devtmpfs does not create /dev/sr? nodes on this system. udevd does once started. No, as explained. udevd doesn't create the /dev/sr* device node. The /etc/init.d/udev init script does mount the devtmpfs file system, maybe you are confusing that with udevd creating the device node. That said, your initramfs should already mount devtmpfs. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth? signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

It is important to note that without the device node, attempting to eject /dev/sr0 or /dev/sr1 is going to fail. Some (notably apple) cdroms don't have eject buttons. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

Noticed CDROM drive spinning up every 30 seconds. (This CDROM drive spins up on media sense.) Noticed /dev/sr? missing from system. Regression from initial Jessie release. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Tried reading internet pages to fidn out why. * What was the outcome of this action? Can't make the devices appear except by mknod. * What outcome did you expect instead? /dev/sr? always present, don't poll cdrom devices except on demand. *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** Afaik, the /dev/sr* device node is created by the kernel (via devtmpfs) and not by udev. So what you describe sounds like an issue with your kernel. The only thing udev does is create symlinks and apply permissions. Please point out where udev is at fault, otherwise we'll have to close this bug report. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth? signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
