Does /dev/hdc exist?  If so, what are the permissions there?  What
about /dev/cdrom?

What does "/sbin/cdrom_id /dev/hdc" report?

You can also try setting udev_log=7 in /etc/udev/udev.conf, run
udevstart, and take a look at the messages in /var/log/messages to see
what devices udev is seeing, what rules it is matching for those, and
what devices and links it is creating.

The default rules for udev (in /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules) makes
framebuffer devices in /dev/fb/, with symlinks at /dev/fbX.  The only
'video' devices are for capture cards, and are created as
/dev/v4l/videoX, with symlinks as /dev/videoX.  What device are you
expecting at /dev/video?
