Bug Description
On a fresh boot, with no DVD inserted:
$ ls -Al /dev/dvd
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 2 18:25 /dev/dvd -> sr0
As soon as I insert a DVD:
$ ls -l /dev/dvd
ls: cannot access /dev/dvd: No such file or directory
The only new lines in dmesg are:
[ 88.411709] UDF-fs: Partition marked readonly; forcing readonly mount
[ 88.472834] UDF-fs: INFO Mounting volume 'WILLIAM_
This is on a fully updated install of Ubuntu 12.04, with udev 175-0ubuntu9.
I don't want /dev/dvd to stop existing exactly when I need to use it.
