</div></div>Yes, they are created by udev. I had the same problem as yours but my<br>
description of the problem was slightly different from yours: links<br>
/dev/dvd to /dev/sr0 were created at boot time but erased as soon as I<br>
put a cd|dvd in the drive. So I could use the drive only once!<br>
<br>
<br>
The missing file was: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules<br></blockquote><div><br>Yes, I have it. Here's the content:<br><br># DVD-RW_DVR-217D (pci-0000:00:11.0-scsi-1:0:0:0)<br>ENV{ID_CDROM}=="?*", ENV{ID_PATH}=="pci-0000:00:11.0-scsi-1:0:0:0", SYMLINK+="cdrom", ENV{GENERATED}="1"<br>
