Recognition of an USB CD-Rom in FC3

[Joachim Backes]

Hi,

having the following problem: I have an USB CD ROM, which is 
attached to my LINUX machine (FC3, Vanilla Kernel 2.6.10)
already at boot time. But I can't file the /dev entry, and a
mount is impossible.

Only if I unplug and plug in the USB device, I can use it.
Question: what to do for using the device directly after
boot without plugging out/in?

Any help appreciated.
