Taking a look at my own system shows... [d531][waltdnes][~] ls -1 /etc | grep "\.d$" conf.d cron.d env.d init.d ld.so.conf.d local.d logrotate.d modprobe.d profile.d sandbox.d sudoers.d xinetd.d Following the pattern seems very logical. Are there any install routines that are hard-coded to dump udev rules in specific directories? If so, we may need to create a symlink from /etc/udev.d/ otherwise, just change the install routines. -- Walter Dnes <waltdnes@waltdnes.org>
