What I did was write a 10-local.rules file following |
| 10 |
the model at reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html. |
| 11 |
So now I get the proper symlinks: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
heathen@localhost ~ $ ls -l /dev/cd* |
| 14 |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 10 10:21 /dev/cdrom -> |
| 15 |
hdc |
| 16 |
heathen@localhost ~ $ ls -l /dev/dvd |
| 17 |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 10 10:21 /dev/dvd -> hdd |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
plus these unwanted ones which are the result of |
| 20 |
70-persistent-cd.rules |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 10 10:21 /dev/cdrom4 -> |
| 23 |
hdc |
| 24 |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 10 10:21 /dev/cdrom5 -> |
| 25 |
hdd |
| 26 |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 10 10:21 /dev/cdrw4 -> |
| 27 |
hdc |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
question is, how do I turn off persistent-cd rules? |
| 30 |
Even if I delete it another is generated when the PC |
| 31 |
boots. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Do I delete /lib/udev*/write_cd_rules? |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
According to the FAQ persistence is most useful for |
| 36 |
devices that are likely to be plugged in and out |
| 37 |
fairly often. I don't expect to do that with the |
| 38 |
optical drives. |
