Is there any trick to get back /dev/hd names?

I get this huge names.

for ex:

iostat
Code:

ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part5
                  4.29       139.08        17.64     120504      15288



raid:
Code:

Number   Major   Minor   RaidDevice State
       0      22        1        0      active sync   /dev/ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/part1


mdstat:
Code:

cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid5]
read_ahead 1024 sectors
md0 : active raid5 ide/host4/bus1/target1/lun0/part1[8] ide/host4/bus1/target0/lun0/part1[6] ide/host4/bus0/target0/lun0/part1[5] ide/host2/bus1/target0/lun0/part1[4] ide/host2/bus0/target1/lun0/part1[3] ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1[2] ide/host0/bus1/target1/lun0/part1[1] ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/part1[0]


It's really confusing and takes time to "translate" to proper dev.

i want my /dev/hd[a,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,]1 back!
Anyone know what i can do to fix it?

;) Thanx

Were they ever there?
If so, when did they disappear?

What kernel are you using?
Are you sure you have the proper drivers included with the kernel?

Proper drivers are in kernel.
(symlinks /dev/hd.... also exists)

Could have something to do with the: enable Per partition statistics in /proc/partitions in a 2.4.28-r7 kernel
