Thank you alan and >Q<. |

The problem seems to be that I was trying to mount (a partition of) |
| 4 |
the usb disk at boot time with localmount. The localmount init script |
| 5 |
is run before the usb filesystem (usbfs) is mounted. I have now |
| 6 |
listed it as noauto in fstab and mount it in local.start. |

But I did learn a few points in reading several doc (especially |
| 9 |
drake's udev guide). |

The docs suggest placing local rules in 10-local.rules since that |
| 12 |
prevents them from being overwritten by later generic rules. I tried |
| 13 |
moving it to 99-local.rules; nothing changed. |

|

The URL referenced by Q suggests that you can only use one section of |
| 16 |
output from udevinfo to construct a rule. In fact you can use two, |
| 17 |
the original "dev" node and ONE parent. Thus I could include the |
| 18 |
serial number as a matching criteria. |

Again thanks for the help. |
