Hallo community! I have two optical drives, First: hdc ----->normally used as dvd/cdrom "reader", so that must usually a symlink to dev/cdrom /dev/dvd Second: hdd ------->normally used as cd/dvdwriter, symlink is calling in FC cdwriter; But FC5 set everything to dev/hdd? Why? Try to enforce it with: ln -sf hdc dvd for example, would be erased after a reboot, and all way points to my second device hdd.Some applications are due to this not correct in funktion. Is it the product of some obscure interaction from hal,pam,hotplug and so on? Pls help me, in FC4 all works fine for me...... :-) Bst rgds Edgar
