Comment 12 for bug 429752

Note that a list of kernel device names is available at:
  http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/devices.txt

I have filtered out non-block devices and cut down duplicates (You don't need to know all the exact names of the various devices that match /dev/sd.*), and attached this file as Linux_block_devices3. However it is still quite large:

$ cat Linux_block_devices3 | grep -o '/dev/[^[:space:]]*' | wc -l
166

I am guessing that we don't want to automatically mount /dev/ram*, and we probably don't care whether RiscPC devices are mounted (I doubt that Ubuntu officially supports them), but it seems that most of the devices on that list should be automatically mounted (e.g. why someone would use a pre-ADAPI cdrom these days I don't know, but since the kernel supports them so should Ubuntu). One of the more important device types that seems to missing from the list above is scd*.
