Hi, list!
I've got two USB storage devices here, a Jump Drive and a floppy/superdisk
drive. When plugged in by itself, the floppy drive becomes /dev/sda; the
Jump Drive becomes /dev/sda1. When they are both plugged in together,
whichever one was plugged in first gets /dev/sda(1), and the other
becomes /dev/sdb(1). This behavior is expected and understood.
What I'd like to know is whether or not it's possible to make the floppy
drive, for example, *always* /dev/sdb, even if it's plugged in by itself.
This would simplify life by allowing me to have /etc/fstab always know where
the floppy drive is, make desktop icons, etc.
Does anyone know how to do this?
