Since the introduction of sysfs and udev and whateverdev the system now creates a bunch of mount points automagically. I have a friend who wants to rename these but they vanish after reboot. The devices are pointing to actual ide devices in fstab, but instead of: /media/cdrecorder he wants /media/dvd-burner /media/cdrecorder1 he wants /media/cd-burner /media/cdrom he wants /media/dvd-rom I am not finding the config information for this anywhere. Any ideas how these mount points are determined and/or created? -- 'This message has not been made with the consent or cooperation of the Federal Board of Regulations (F.B.R.) or the Central Enquires Agency (C.E.A.).
