Multiple /dev designator fstab(solved in udev rules)

Is it possible to enable multiple USB ID's in fstab as follows;

/dev/sc[0-9] /cdrom iso9660 ro,users,noauto  0  0

The cdrom is connected on an IDE-USB cable.

The idea is to enable audio CD regardless  of the state of the USB selection process.

Adding an entry for each USB designator is an option.

I think you can do that with udev rules. Not statically in fstab though.

Dusty;

Perhaps you can expand on the udev rule suggestion?

Re: Multiple /dev designator fstab(solved in udev rules)

Entered the following in CD Symlinks;
==============================================================
BUS=="scsi",    KERNEL="scd[0-9]", ACTION=="add", IMPORT="/sbin/cdrom_id --export $tempnode"
=============================================================
This seems to have solved the selection for audio cd's in USB-cdrom, regardless of the designator.
