That's only going to be of any good if discX *always* appears as discX, no matter where it's connected, and no matter what else is also connected. The techniques of working with discs connected in different ways is going to be different. So something other than the name, now, will have to be used to determine what way to handle the device. I do wish things were done more like how it was on the Amiga: Device names were written into the device, as were volume names, and the file system (if you wanted it to be). Plugging the drive into anything meant it was labelled and identified the same on any computer. -- (Currently testing FC5, but still running FC4, if that's important.)
