Subject: Internal ZIP drive and udev device nodes
Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2006 00:49:07 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <43FD0683.7050604@unb.ca> (raw)

I am running Fedora Core 4,
     kernel-2.6.15-1.1831_FC4
     udev-071-0.FC4.2
     hal-0.5.2-2.fc4.1
on an IBM ThinkCentre 8143-4JU
     Pentium 4 550 with HT 3400MHz
     Intel 915G chipset
     Iomega ZIP 100 ATAPI drive
         (as slave on second chain; master on that chain is
          a DVD-ROM/CD-RW)
On a boot, /dev/hdd is created, but the required /dev/hdd4 is not.
On insertion of media, /dev/hdd4 is not created.
On attempted mount of /dev/hdd with media in drive
         (mount -t vfat /dev/hdd /media/zip)
    mount fails (as expected, "wrong fstype ...", because media
           has a partition table) but /dev/hdd4 is created
Subsequently,  mount -t vfat /dev/hdd4 /media/zip works correctly

An entry
    /dev/hdd4  /media/zip     auto    pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
exists in /etc/fstab.
However, neither
      mount /media/zip
nor
      mount /dev/hdd4
work, either before or after the /dev/hdd4 device node is created.

Looking for pointers to documentation that describes how removable
media with partition tables are supposed to work and/or advice
on correcting this problem.
