udev 018: error with ide disk

udev 018: error with ide disk

[Philippe Gramoullé]

 Hello,

I'm fairly new to udev, and here is what i got after compiling, installing, and starting udev 0.18
on a Debian system (Inspiron 8000 laptop, ide disk, Debian Sid system)

udev script is udev-0.18/etc/init.d/udev.debian 

# /etc/init.d/udev start
Creating initial udev device nodes:
/bin/cat: /proc/ide/hda2/media: No such file or directory
/bin/cat: /proc/ide/hda3/media: No such file or directory
/bin/cat: /proc/ide/hda5/media: No such file or directory
/bin/cat: /proc/ide/hda6/media/bin/cat: /proc/ide/hda1/media: No such file or directory
: No such file or directory
/bin/cat: /proc/ide/hda7/media: No such file or directory

in /proc/ide i only have hda directory but not hda[2356]

hda2 is /
hda3 is the extendeded partition that encompass hda[567]
hda5 is /home
hda6 is /usr
hda7 is swap

On my SCSI only desktop (same Debian version), i don't have any problem with udev-0.18

Thanks,

Philippe

I thought we fixed that already.

You try to read 'media' on a partition,
simply ignore it or try the following:

  BUS="ide", KERNEL="*[!0-9]", PROGRAM="/bin/cat /proc/ide/%k/media", RESULT="cdrom", NAME="%k", SYMLINK="cdrom"

thanks,
Kay
