Thanks for the tip. But where is this documented? I can't find a
reference to devfs.rules or to the devfs_system_ruleset variable. And,
do you know if devfs.rules can create links such as are created by
devfs.conf? I want to have /dev/cdrom and /dev/dvd symlinked to my DVD
drive when I attach it.

Any pointers are appreciated.
