retitle 478004 support for dpt_i2o devfs-style device paths in grub-probe
severity 478004 wishlist
kthxbye

Hi,

I discussed this with Marco d'Itri (udev maintainer), and he
confirms Teodor's suspicions that this is an udev issue.

You may need to either upgrade your udev or configure it properly not to use
devfs-style filenames (this should be the default setup now).

Nevertheless, it'd still be nice if grub-probe could support this old
naming scheme, so I'll keep the bug open as wishlist for now.
