Hi folks,

I have got a couple of usb mass storage devices which work nicely with FreeBSD.
But they are numbered chronological on insertion. I would like some sort of
static numbering scheme for easing up for example automounting. 
Now i use a hand script which take de base da[0-9]+ numbering as var but hate 
this way of working. 

Does anybody know a more lazy way to do such thing?

Robert
