Extreme consistency indeed. Really? I put in the CD "Tax2005" - let me check this, yes - and it is mounted, every time, on every device, as /media/Tax2005. So instead of looking in /media/cdrecorder0 or /media/cdrecorder1 I look in /media/Tax2005. > On the top of that many people told you about other very undesirable > effects while, if you are using only "desktop" to access your data, > your gain is exactly none. Haven't said anything about using only the desktop. Every change in a running system has its drawbacks. There was a discussion about introduction of modules in the kernel quite a while ago. Since the computer hardware didn't change so fast as it does today, some argued that a purely monolithic kernel, no hardware modules whatsoever, would be more stable, easier to maintain, would break some existing methods (which it did) and so on; they flatly refused to see the advantages. But that's a different story. The problem is to look at the pros and cons and to find out if the gain outweighs the drawbacks. Which, in this case, I think it does. > > And no, I'm certainly not kidding. > > Then you did not really think about what you wish for. I did, still do. But before you start judging my thinking, try to stay on the topic. -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
