I mentioned this in passing a couple of days ago, but no-one
commented. I've just checked with my new RH8 and it's suffering the
same problem as I had with 7.3.
If I plug in & unplug my USB [smart-media] card-reader, a new 'scsi'
device gets allocated by the kernel every time (I think it's a
kernel-type issuie & not hotplug itself).
The first time /var/log/messages says something about making device
scsi1 and setting up /dev/sda (maybe sda1). Unplug it, and it says it's
disconnecting the USB device.
The scond & subsequent times, I get 'scsi2', 'scsi3', etc., and
/dev/sdb, sdc, sdd, etc.
If I plug my actual camera in, it's all fine: I get scsi1/sda every time.
It tries to run the same usb script eveytime, and does match the USB
ID correctly, as with the camera, I do a successful 'mount /dev/sda1
/mnt/camera' [from fstab], but with the card reader I get an error from
this as, natch, sda1 is only valid the first time.
I've sent myself [from home] the relevant messages snippet, but not
yet logged in to post it, but I'm not sure it's got any info. of any use.
Anyone any clues?
