For SCSI, yes, it could have changed (depending on your hardware setup). SCSI disk scanning happens in parallel, and has ever since kernel 2.6.18 or .19 or somewhere around there. I believe it still depends on your low-level SCSI driver though. In any case, the sdX device names are no longer necessarily stable. That's why udev now creates the /dev/disk/by-* trees of symlinks, whose names are supposed to be stable. (I'd recommend by-id myself, but it depends on how your disks are set up.) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHA3ZyS5vET1Wea5wRA+X+AKCbk7mtSA79wvZ0uQKHnTrgWTvTGQCdE7mh LML2ihueJgirORxFAvczVZA= =JZO3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Ext3-users mailing list Ext3-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
