I saw from your other post that you're using an old kernel, maybe |
| 37 |
you're using an old udev too. I'm using 164-r1 and |
| 38 |
70-persistent-cd.rules is auto-generated by this rule: |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
/lib/udev/rules.d/75-cd-aliases-generator.rules |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
which really just runs /lib/udev/write_cd_rules script, you could also |
| 43 |
try to run manually if that exists in your system. |
