UDEV and USB Mass Storage

UDEV and USB Mass Storage

[Thomas Gufler]

Hello,

I use udev-013 on an gentoo 1.4 system. When I connect my USB mass storage 
camera (Sony DSC-P1) for the first time I get a /dev/sda1 device, however 
when I connect the camera for the second time I get /dev/sdb1. 
What is needed to get always the same device for a mass storage device? Can 
someone show me how an entry in udev.rules should look like for this 
behavior?

Best regards,

Tom Gufler

Did you run 'eject' and unmount the device after you were done with it,
before (or after) you removed it?

I use:
BUS="usb", SYSFS_vendor="FUJIFILM", SYSFS_model="M100", NAME="camera%n"

to name my camera.

Hope this helps,
