Description Techie2000 2002-11-30 20:37:37 UTC 
The following section is setup incorrectly:

# Create /dev/cdrom for the first cdrom drive
LOOKUP          ^cdrom$          CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink cdroms/cdrom0 cdrom
REGISTER        ^cdrom/cdrom0$   CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink $devname cdrom
UNREGISTER      ^cdrom/cdrom0$   CFUNCTION GLOBAL unlink cdrom

It should read:

# Create /dev/cdrom for the first cdrom drive
LOOKUP          ^cdrom$          CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink cdroms/cdrom0 cdrom
REGISTER        ^cdroms/cdrom0$   CFUNCTION GLOBAL mksymlink $devname cdrom
UNREGISTER      ^cdroms/cdrom0$   CFUNCTION GLOBAL unlink cdrom

The ^cdrom part should be ^cdroms so that it can make a symlink as there is no
/dev/cdrom directory. The same problem exists in the commented out DVD section.

Fixed on CVS, thanks.
