2008-10-23 01:13:41 Scott James Remnant (Canonical) udev: statusexplanation Identified as a missing ID_TYPE caused by scsi_id not returning, due to lack of support for the SG ioctl set in the VMware driver. Previous versions of scsi_id fell back to setting stuff from sysfs, but this is all in the kernel environment now, so current version doesn't. Best solution is a rule to ensure that ID_TYPE is still set for backwards compatibility for the time being
