Suppose the following scenario:
1) Someone has /dev/hdc as his only CD-ROM
2) He boots the computer, the script creates the /dev/cdrom -> hdc symlink
3) He powers the computer off, moves the CD-ROM to /dev/hdd, adds a disk as
/dev/hdc, and boots again
4) The script creates /dev/cdrom1 -> hdd cymlink. The old /dev/cdrom -> hdc
symlink stays, but points to some non-CD-ROM device.
Should one treat this as a bug?
