Hi all

/dev/hdc is my cdrom.  But, the player looks for /dev/cdrom.

So of course I set up a link, /dev/cdrom pointing to /dev/hdc.  Works 
fine... UNTIL I reboot, and discover the link's gone.

What's rm'ing the link to hdc?  On the assumption that it happens during 
boot (as opposed to when shutting down), I disabled kudzu but that made 
no difference, /dev/cdrom still disappears.
