Can I alias a device for the mount command in RedHat 9?
I have a program which mounts /dev/sdb1 for which I lack the source code. This device does not exist on my RedHat 9 system and I want to create /dev/sdb1 such that it's an alias for /dev/hdb1 Can I do this? with MAKEDEV?
I need to have an alias which will allow it to mount, not create a symbolic link to an already mounted directory. i.e. 'mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/harddrive' should actually mount /dev/hdb1 |
Can we back up and ask why on earth you're running rh9 in the first place?? That's SO old it's unreal.

You can just make a link. For example:
Code:
root@laptop:~# umount /dev/sdb1 |

Cool. As you have reasons then that's just groovy, you'd be amazed how many people think that redhat 9 is the newest version as it's the highest number associated with redhat.
