Symlink into /dev directory are automatically deleted
by marconap from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5Q5NW)
Hi all, I am encountering a very strange problem. I created some symbolic link in the /dev directory, like this:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 29 set 09.54 /dev/ttyM100 -> tty_dgrp_M1_0
I need this link because the new serial port driver creates all the devices with a different name and I have to mantain the compatibility with my old software.
Sometimes I realize that the software is no more able to use the devices, so I go into the /dev directory and I discover that the links are no more present.
Someone can help me?
Thanks a lot
Marco
