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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
