Just a little bit of sharing:

AFAIK udev assumes sata drive as scsi drive, and this is not good
for me. On my '/dev/hda based system' to mount flashdisk I just
need to type mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /to/some/mount-point.
Or having it mounted automagically by gnome.
But since my sda is already used, I need something else around.
In my sata machine ( AFAIK as I read from /usr/share/doc/HOWTO/en-txt/
Flash-Memory-HOWTO ) I need to stick it manually to some mount point
by searching the vendor name of the flash drive and editing
my udev.rules and /etc/fstab then reboot which is quite hell for me.

*NO* need to reboot!  The next time you insert a flash drive, the
new rule will be seen.
OK. Reboot not needed. Thanks for the information.

Imagin' how many times I should do that while there will be a lot of
flashdrives belong to my friends will be coming by and stuck at
these boxes. Those which I believe with various vendor name.
( one day after first installation I've done it twice ).
Keep the good work to all developers anyway, I'll always wait for
further improvement enthusiastically.
Now, I still can't get my cdrw works. This cdrw is using IDE interface.
I got /dev/cdrom and /dev/cdrw device file which both are refered to
/dev/hdb. Looks like the mount process goes fine, since I can see the cd
led blink while inserting cd and command 'eject' works like a charm means
that it is mounted automagically.
But when I browse into /cdrom or cdrom icon within gnome's Computer icon
it shows me error message ( sorry i can't write it down right now since
I can't remember it - i'm not at home right now ) saying the device can't
be found ( something similiar ).
Simply said that I can't browse into my cd, and I've tried to mount
various possible device files to the cdrom mount point with no good result.
Executing 'mount /cdrom' with root privilege --which always work on my
'ide ata based system' with unstable and kernel 2.6-- doesn't help.
What 'tweaks' should I do now ?

thanks,
