During installation or upgrade if more than 10 scsi cdrom are found the devices beyond 9 have incorrect names. "0","1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9",":",";","<","=", etc.... scd0,....,"scd:","scd;",scd<","scd=",etc... also the names in mnt are wrong. Obviously this error is cause by the fact that numbers are assigned adding 0x30 hex value to the device number (ascii 0) and not checking for values greater than 9.
Could you please try 7.0 out and let us know if it works better?
Unfortunately my multiple cd machine is going into production environment and I have not hardrive space to make another installation. Upgrading to 7.0 is not planned now (unfortunately too many bugs in my testings).

What would be the correct names and major,minor numbers for the drives beyond the 10th?
I have major always 11 and minor ranging from 0 to 20 and they are actually all working! brw-rw---- 1 root disk 11, 0 May 5 1998 /dev/scd0 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 11, 1 May 5 1998 /dev/scd1 brw-r----- 1 root root 11, 10 Dec 10 2000 /dev/scd10 brw-r----- 1 root root 11, 11 Dec 10 2000 /dev/scd11 brw-r----- 1 root root 11, 12 Dec 10 2000 /dev/scd12 brw-r----- 1 root root 11, 13 Dec 10 2000 /dev/scd13 brw-r----- 1 root root 11, 14 Dec 10 2000 /dev/scd14 brw-r----- 1 root root 11, 15 Dec 10 2000 /dev/scd15 brw-r----- 1 root root 11, 16 Dec 10 2000 /dev/scd16 brw-r----- 1 root root 11, 17 Dec 10 2000 /dev/scd17 brw-r----- 1 root root 11, 18 Dec 10 2000 /dev/scd18 brw-r----- 1 root root 11, 19 Dec 10 2000 /dev/scd19 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 11, 2 May 5 1998 /dev/scd2 brw-r----- 1 root root 11, 20 Dec 10 2000 /dev/scd20 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 11, 3 May 5 1998 /dev/scd3 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 11, 4 May 5 1998 /dev/scd4 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 11, 5 May 5 1998 /dev/scd5 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 11, 6 May 5 1998 /dev/scd6 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 11, 7 May 5 1998 /dev/scd7 brw-r----- 1 root root 11, 8 Dec 10 2000 /dev/scd8 brw-r----- 1 root root 11, 9 Dec 10 2000 /dev/scd9 I think you may hit a limit on 63 ??
Thanks for the feedback, assigning to an engineer.
Fixed in kudzu in CVS -- thanks for the report.
unable to verify w/internal test lab equipment, please reopen if still a problem!
