* If we start this, we should probably provide symlinks for all * `standard' device that has been found, like /dev/tape + /dev/ntape and * /dev/[r]diskette. I don't know how that follows. * What about people with half a dozen of each drive type? Create * symlinks /dev/cdrom0 ... /dev/cdromN, or just create the first one? Just the first one is fine. People having half a dozen of them clearly need to know what they are doing. * (Which one is the `primary' drive for a machine that has /dev/cd0c and * /dev/wcd0c?) No idea. Whoever builds a machine like that clearly needs to know what they are doing. :) * Which partition name should the symlink point to? It seems that * cdcontrol recently only accepts /dev/cd0c (it used to accept /dev/cd0a * as well previously). Then /dev/cd0c should be fine.
