Hi, after following your tips the code gets like the following one:
SUBSYSTEM=="block", ATTR{serial}=="VNVB05G2RKTRZH", NAME="hda"
SUBSYSTEM=="block", ATTR{serial}=="9QK0T4WM", NAME="sda"
SUBSYSTEM=="block", ATTR{serial}=="3QD0X58D", NAME="sdb"
SUBSYSTEM=="block", ATTR{serial}=="9QK0RS9G", NAME="sdc"
SUBSYSTEM=="block", ATTR{serial}="9VP0SBVN", NAME="sdc"
KERNEL=="hd*", SUBSYSTEM=="block", ATTR{serial}=="VNVB05G2RKTRZH", NAME="hda%n"
KERNEL=="sd*", SUBSYSTEM=="block", ATTR{serial}=="9QK0T4WM", NAME="sda%n"
KERNEL=="sd*", SUBSYSTEM=="block", ATTR{serial}=="3QD0X58D", NAME="sdb%n"
KERNEL=="sd*", SUBSYSTEM=="block", ATTR{serial}=="9QK0RS9G", NAME="sdc%n"
KERNEL=="sd*", SUBSYSTEM=="block", ATTR{serial}=="9VP0SBVN", NAME="sdc%n"
That's not working, when i plug more devices they get named without
taking care of the rules above. Do someone know why? thanks. i would
like to be able to name devies using its serial number. Thanks in
advanced
