hi; |
| 2 |
I upgraded to udev-070 recently (and now to udev-070-rc1). |
| 3 |
Since then, I can't mount /mnt/cdrom properly. |
| 4 |
Before, my /dev directory had a /dev/hdb, as well as /dev/hdb1, |
| 5 |
/dev/hdb2 .... . Now, it only has /dev/hdb1, /dev/hdb2, but /dev/hdb is |
| 6 |
no longer there. I still don't understand how udev works; I read the |
| 7 |
guide on |
| 8 |
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/udev-guide.xml |
| 9 |
but it didn't help. I've read also a guide at |
| 10 |
http://www.reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html |
| 11 |
and I craeted the file /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules, which reads as |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
----------------------- /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules --------- |
| 14 |
BUS="ide", KERNEL="hdb", NAME="%k", SYMLINK="cdrom cdroms/cdrom%n" |
| 15 |
------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
But it doesn't help. What I find rather strange is that if I do |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
# mount /mnt/cdrom |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
(my /etc/fstab points /mnt/cdrom to /dev/cdroms/cdrom0, which is a |
| 22 |
symlink to /dev/hdb) I get "device does not exist". But if I try to |
| 23 |
mount it on hdb1, it seems to create the file /dev/hdb, and now I can |
| 24 |
mount it: |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
rojo ~ # mount -tiso9660 /dev/hdb /mnt/cdrom/ |
| 27 |
mount: special device /dev/hdb does not exist |
| 28 |
rojo ~ # mount -tiso9660 /dev/hdb1 /mnt/cdrom/ |
| 29 |
mount: /dev/hdb1 is not a valid block device |
| 30 |
rojo ~ # mount -tiso9660 /dev/hdb /mnt/cdrom/ |
| 31 |
mount: block device /dev/hdb is write-protected, mounting read-only |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Any help as how to have the node /dev/hdb created at boot in a |
| 34 |
somewhat clean way is appreciated. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
Please notice also that at /etc/conf.d/rc I have the line |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
RC_DEVICE_TARBALL="yes" |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
which is also not helping here. |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
Thanks, |
| 43 |
