>From a script, I need to retrieve, if possible, the serial number of each disk-like device on my embedded system running linux 2.6.31 (yeah, I know, its not my choice). I find it in (say) /proc/scsi/usb-storage/3, where 3 is the scsi # it got this time. If I search on the web, they say its impossible to get the serial numbers of usb devices, but obviously, they are wrong. Is there a right way to retrieve the serial number of, say, /dev/sdb, from the maze of twisty symlinks in /sys and /proc? Or do I make one up and hope I thought of all the special cases?
