dd to mount, that I want to use the udev-created /dev/green_burner, so
why do you indicate such usage is _deprecated_ in cdrecord? For such
device nodes, a _filesystem_ is the preferred name=>number index, so
why add an extra strange file "just because Solaris does".
If you use /dev/ entries to directly address SCSI targets, then you are relying on on assumptions that cannot be granted everywhere.
Cdrecord is portable and this needs to implement a way that is portable and does not rely on nonportable assumptions like yours.
And why again do you need stable SCSI addresses for my _USB_ drive?
Well if the udev program was polite to users, it would also support
to edit /etc/default/cdrecord......
... if it _really_ does wat you like with /dev/ links, then it has all the information that is needed to also maintain /etc/default/cdrecord
