Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Sun, 06 Sep 1998 22:40:06 -0500 From: Chris Csanady Sender: owner-freebsd-scsi@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org As the device naming is different in CAM anyways, would there be any possibility of taking it one step further? I have found it to be quite nice in other OS's that actually use subdirectories for disk names, terminals, etc. It makes /dev a much cleaner place imho. Also, I would love for the names to actually be based upon the scsi controller, id, lun, partition etc.. although, I suppose there is no way in hell this will happen. :P It sucks when a disk goes away, and then every last entry in your fstab is incorrect though.
