Dear Tong,
# cd /etc/udev/rules.d/ 
# ln -s ../cd-aliases-generator.rules z75_cd-aliases-generator.rules

used to work,  but with all the new udev stuff, I cannot be certain.

I just did /ln -s /dev/scd0 /dev/dvd and the file was already present in
0.8, whereas in 0.7 I had to run the command supra.

Basically udev/hal was invented to replace things normally outlawed by the
Geneva convention.


Best,
M
