(please include my and Dan's email in any responses as we normally don't =
lurk on the USB mailing list)

So @work we use serial->USB TTY MUX's to handle our serial console needs,=
 and at some sites we have a need that is greater than a single 16 port d=
evice (the max you can get).  The problem is that with two of these 16 po=
rt USB devices is that sometimes during a reboot that the "second" device=
 gets probed first and so the first 16 and second 16 /dev/ttyU* blocks sw=
ap around... which of course plays havoc with any symlinks we have to the=
 devices in rtty or conserver. :(

Is there any way to tell the USB code to always select a certain device f=
irst?  I assume this has been a issue with USB storage devices so this sh=
ouldn't be a new issue.  And I tried searching for a answer on the web to=
 no avail.

Ideas?

Thanks - Peter
