[TriLUG] no device for CDROM in kernel-2.6

I'm getting started with 2.6 kernels. I've just noticed that 
there is no /dev/hdc for my cdrom, even though the cdrom is 
detected as hdc on bootup. Adding hdc to /dev by hand allows 
me to access the device, but this being 2.6, the hdc is not 
there on the next bootup.

How do I get udev to add hdc to /dev automatically on 
bootup?

Thanks Joe
