Ok.  Cool.  So, I renamed my 70-persistent-cd.rules file to .orig and
rebooted.  Here are the results.


ph03nix at server:~$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules
# This file was automatically generated by the /lib/udev/write_cd_rules
# program, probably run by the cd-aliases-generator.rules rules file.
#
# You can modify it, as long as you keep each rule on a single line
# and set the $GENERATED variable.

So, that appears to have worked well.  This box is a holdover from
feisty, I think.  I've just upgraded it every time since it's my
server and I hate trying to get my mail set back up.
