Now /proc/scsi/scsi lists all my devices [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ more /proc/scsi/scsi Attached devices: Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 03 Lun: 00 Vendor: TEAC Model: CD-R55S Rev: 1.0J Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: PIONEER Model: DVD-ROM DVD-104 Rev: 2.02 Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Host: scsi2 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: eUSB Model: SmartMedia Rev: 5.04 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Whereas before only the first and last were included.
