[SLUG] USB device mappings

[Ben Buxton <bb@xxxxxxxxxx>]

How can one go about ensuring that certain USB mass-storage devices
always get linked to the right /dev node, irregardless of the order that
they're plugged into?

I'd like to have things where by for example, my camera always appears
ad /dev/sda, my USB key as /dev/sdb, etc. It seems that they are
allocated in the order they're attached, but this makes things rather
complicated as I have to keep hunting for which device something's
attacehd to.
