Yeah, but the real bug is /usr not on the rootfs, or tools in udev rules
that use stuff in /usr. Unfortunately, people don't want me to fix this
'bug'. :)

Care to post an as much as possible stand-alone solution from the Debian
script for the cdrom rules, so we all can start to look at it for a
possible integration into the udev tree? If that works well, we can
continue with the network stuff ...

Thanks,
Kay
