This system started out as lenny in 2009 and I just upgraded to squeeze. Most of the system is fine but I have lost both CDROM's which used to be /media/cdrom0 and /media/cdrom1. I didn't help anything when I accidently left a usb drive installed so it looks like the thing to do is clean out /etc/udev/rules.d of 70-persistent-cd.rules and start over minus the usb drive in the hopes that I can modify the rules to get the CDROM's back.
There is a executable file in /lib/udev called write_cd_rules but I can't seem to find what calls it or what $DEVPATH value it needs to run properly. Documentation as to how all this goes together is also lacking. Google searches produce about ten-quadrillian hits of which precisely one is relevant but described a similar situation in fedora and the suggested fix didn't work, here, and all the rest are just hits on copies of write_cd_rules and the generator rules file that write_cd_rules uses when one runs it. Is there a way to re-run it and produce new files that can be used as a starting point?
