Also, you want to check for just in case clashes with the new name, so something like: char newname[64]; i=1; ssprintf(newname, "%s", name) while (enclosure_component_find_by_name (edev, newname)) ssprintf(newname, "%s-%s", name, i++); dev_set_name(cdev, "%s", newname); This also counts from one rather than using the random component number, so if you have 15 slots all called "slot", they appear as "slot", "slot-1" "slot-2" etc. James -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
