8 I actually like having the /dev/scsi/host4/bus0/target0/lun0/part stuff. In
9 certain circumstances, accessing devices based on physical location can be
10 useful.
11 However, I like hearing that you can specify device-specific things like
12 that... Maybe I'll switch and hope I can configure it to do both =D
13 Anyone know if the script for hotplug to automatically mount USB devices
14 (under /mnt/usb/devicename) is compatible w/ udev?
