If think who its better making a link, its a start. Creating always the /dev/fooN device, and creating a link with the /dev/foo name (for example, the case of /dev/hdX and /dev/cdrom). In the future, when the programs are updated with this change, can delete the link, and doesn't create more on newers instalations. - -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] || http://maqui.darkbolt.net Linux registered user number: #363219 PGP key avaliable at KeyServ.
