Thanks for your reply (and all the others, which kindly pointed out docs on the web that sadly already sit on my machine but had already given no help) This of course works, but it's no good for me, since I sometimes mount a SCSI hard disk as well... > What does > > udevinfo -a -p $(udevinfo -q path -n /dev/sda) > > say? udevinfo -a -p $(udevinfo -q path -n /dev/sda) udevinfo starts with the device the node belongs to and then walks up the device chain, to print for every device found, all possibly useful attributes in the udev key format. Only attributes within one device section may be used together in one rule, to match the device for which the node will be created. device '/sys/block/sda' has major:minor 8:0 looking at class device '/sys/block/sda': SUBSYSTEM="block" SYSFS{dev}="8:0" SYSFS{range}="16" SYSFS{removable}="1" SYSFS{size}="1019617" SYSFS{stat}=" 6 234 240 203 0 0 0 0 0 133 203" follow the class device's "device" looking at the device chain at '/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:10.1/usb2/2-2/2-2:1.0/host3/target3:0:0/3:0:0:0': BUS="scsi" ID="3:0:0:0" DRIVER="sd" SYSFS{device_blocked}="0" SYSFS{iocounterbits}="32" SYSFS{iodone_cnt}="0x2e" SYSFS{ioerr_cnt}="0x0" SYSFS{iorequest_cnt}="0x2e" SYSFS{max_sectors}="240" SYSFS{model}=".2" SYSFS{queue_depth}="1" SYSFS{queue_type}="none" SYSFS{rev}="" SYSFS{scsi_level}="3" SYSFS{state}="running" SYSFS{timeout}="30" SYSFS{type}="0" SYSFS{vendor}="linux.so" Currently, none of the rules BUS="usb",SYSFS{modalias}="usb:v10D6p1100d0100dc00dsc00dp00ic08isc05ip50",SYMLINK="usbstick" BUS="scsi",SYSFS{modalias}="usb:v10D6p1100d0100dc00dsc00dp00ic08isc05ip50",SYMLINK="usbstick" BUS="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}="10d6", SYMLINK="usbstick" BUS="scsi", SYSFS{idVendor}="10d6", SYMLINK="usbstick" BUS="usb", SYSFS{idProduct}="1100", SYMLINK="usbstick" BUS="scsi", SYSFS{idProduct}="1100", SYMLINK="usbstick" seem to work. (I've put them in /etc/udev/rules.d/010local.rules) Again, the right info on my usb pen are found in /sys/bus/usb/devices/2-2/idVendor, etc but sda seems to refer to the usb device 2-2/2-2:1-0 $ ls /sys/block/sda/ -l totale 0 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 2005-10-20 19:29 dev lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 2005-10-20 19:29 device -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:10.1/usb2/2-2/2-2:1.0/host4/target4:0:0/4:0:0:0 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 2005-10-20 19:29 queue -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 2005-10-20 19:29 range -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 2005-10-20 19:29 removable -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 2005-10-20 19:29 size -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 2005-10-20 19:29 stat Isn't this odd?
