I just replaced the DVD burner in my server (which I pulled it from my desktop) and I do not get a /dev/dvd symlink. I installed F8 using a spare CD drive and HTTP to my desktop.

If I create the link myself all works as expected. Could this be somehow linked to the pilot-link issue? I removed that package from that machine since don't need it.

Thanks,

This one is kind of solved. I did some searching in /etc and found the udev/rules directory. In there I found a file called 70-persistand-cd.rules and took a look. It still had the rules for the Lite-On CD drive I removed. Luckly I had pulled the DVD writer from another F8 machine and poked around in the same file and found everything. The only thing I had to change was the device path since it was not the same between the two machines.

Follow up question: Which application is supposed to take care of this? Kudzu? Udev itself?

Thanks,
Richard
