Managing dynamic device namingManaging dynamic device namingPosted Apr 17, 2003 17:12 UTC (Thu) by cpeterso (subscriber, #305)In reply to: Managing dynamic device naming by ken Parent article: Managing dynamic device naming since no one will ever agree on the proper naming scheme, I think pushing the naming policy to userland makes sense. There is only one "official" Linux kernel, so someone will always be upset with a kernel naming policy. In userland, there can be infinite competition for udev-like projects. Sounds good to me! The kernel should implement mechanism, not policy.

Sounds good to me!"Are you brain-dead?!" You *want* your devices to be named consistently across distros, you know. --How about a "limited devfs" where only the types of devices that NEED lots of space (disks) have to go thru it?
