Hi,

since updating to udev-200, automatic device file creation doesn't seem to work any more for attached usb disks/sticks.

My old /etc/udev/rules.d/10_usb-storage.rules (now the only file below /etc/udev/rules.d):

DRIVERS=="usb-storage", ACTION=="add", SYMLINK+="usb-storage"

doesn't seem to have the desired effect of creating /dev/usb-storage when I attach a usb disk. What can I do?

Thanks!

Alex

If not the desired one, what effect does it actually have then?

You could try
Code:
sudo udevadm control --log-priority=debug
and check your general log file to see what happens (verbose debug logging)...

Also see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Map_Custom_Device_Entries_with_udev#Create_udev_rule.

Cheers
Dan

It seems that my external hard disk is in agony. Because sometimes, when connecting the drive, the desired /dev/usb-storage link is created as expected and sometimes not. Thanks once more!
