Hi

Currently grml does not provides the /dev/dvd link. I remember I read somewhere that merely adding a rule symlink to /etc/udev/rules.d/ will do.

But I just can't find it any more. Any one knows about how to do it?

thanks

Dear Tong, # cd /etc/udev/rules.d/ # ln -s ../cd-aliases-generator.rules z75_cd-aliases-generator.rules

used to work, but with all the new udev stuff, I cannot be certain.

I just did /ln -s /dev/scd0 /dev/dvd and the file was already present in 0.8, whereas in 0.7 I had to run the command supra.

Basically udev/hal was invented to replace things normally outlawed by the Geneva convention.

Best, M
