Dear Mostafa Since it is RH 5.0 You should use the following folder and file. [root@TEST1 rules.d]# pwd /etc/udev/rules.d [root@TEST1 rules.d]# cat 60-raw.rules # Enter raw device bindings here. # # An example would be: # ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sda", RUN+="/bin/raw /dev/raw/raw1 %N" # to bind /dev/raw/raw1 to /dev/sda, or # ACTION=="add", ENV{MAJOR}=="8", ENV{MINOR}=="1", RUN+="/bin/raw /dev/raw/raw2 %M %m" # to bind /dev/raw/raw2 to the device with major 8, minor 1. ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sdb1", RUN+="/bin/raw /dev/raw/raw1 %N" ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sdc1", RUN+="/bin/raw /dev/raw/raw2 %N" ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sdd1", RUN+="/bin/raw /dev/raw/raw3 %N" [root@TEST1 rules.d]# Thank you.
