In the morning I revisited the missing /dev/cdrom problem in my Debian
testing installation.
1. I found the /.dev directory, and it had /.dev/hdc
2. I decided to try to link /dev/cdrom to /.dev/hdc, and it worked. I

Hello Haggai,
My laptop is now turned off and I'm going to sleep in a moment, so I'm
asking a theoretical question without actually trying your advice.

I have found, the hard way, that there are neither /dev/hdc* nor
/dev/cdrom in my ThinkPad R40e laptop Debian/testing/non-US/main
installation.
The kernel is 2.6.8 unchanged from the Debian testing package which
installed it.
I did find that there is something called udev, which was supposed t
