BUS="ide", KERNEL="hd*", RESULT="CREATIVE DVD-ROM DVD1243E", SYMLINK="dvdrom"
BUS="ide", KERNEL="hd*", RESULT="CREATIVE DVD-ROM DVD1243E", SYMLINK="dvd"
BUS="ide", KERNEL="hd*", RESULT="CREATIVE DVD-ROM DVD1243E", SYMLINK="cdrom%e"
BUS="ide", KERNEL="hd*", RESULT="SAMSUNG CD-R/RW SW-240B", SYMLINK="cdrw"
BUS="ide", KERNEL="hd*", RESULT="SAMSUNG CD-R/RW SW-240B", SYMLINK="cdrom%e"
