+Recent versions of udev (104 and up) along with newer kernel versions (2.6.19 |
| 51 |
+and up) may change your disc device names, due to a change in the kernel's |
| 52 |
+libata implementation. A CD-RW device at <path>/dev/hdc</path> may be changed to |
| 53 |
+<path>/dev/sr0</path>. While this is not normally a problem, it may cause issues |
| 54 |
+for some applications that are hardcoded to look for devices at other locations. |
| 55 |
+For example, <c>media-sound/rip</c> expects to find discs at |
| 56 |
+<path>/dev/cdrom</path>, which becomes a problem if you use a newer kernel and |
| 57 |
+udev renames your device to <path>/dev/cdrom1</path>. |
| 58 |
+</p> |
| 59 |
+ |
| 60 |
+<p> |
| 61 |
+To work around these issues, you must edit |
| 62 |
+<path>/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules</path> and assign the correct |
| 63 |
+name to the device. |
| 64 |
