From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030728 Mozilla Firebird/0.6.1 Description of problem: This issue is really for the dev package, it is not listed as a component in Bugzilla for Fedora Core. dev-3.3.8-2 does not appear to install /dev/cdrom in a system on which a clean install (not an upgrade) is being done. In fact, grep'ing on 'cdrom' shows no /dev/cdrom devices whatsoever in the package files list. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dev-3.3.8-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Fedora Core as a clean install. 2. 3. Actual Results: /dev/cdrom and similar special device files are not installed. Expected Results: /dev/cdrom should be installed. This also affects updating of fstab. Additional info:
Just tried an experiment with my RHL9 box, where I commented out my /dev/cdrom line. I'd think some combination of kudzu and updfstab should restore /dev/cdrom. It does not. However, the updfstab command does work after reboot. So I'm guessing this is really a feature request, to add /usr/sbin/updfstab to some appropriate rc script after kudzu is run.
It's *in* the kudzu rc script. /dev/cdrom is not a packaged file.
