Or if you want to catch the fact when udev removes a /dev node (which odds are is what you really want to catch), put your script, or a link to it in /etc/dev.d/block/ with the extension .dev and you will get both add and remove events that corrisponded to a udev create or remove device node.

just one more stupid question! ;-)

is this /etc/dev.d/block/ directory supposed to already exist? i think so but can't find it. On my debian sid, i have /etc/udev directory, but no block in this

You need the 023 release for this to work.

And no, that directory will not be there, you need to create it yourself.

and another one in fact : is the creation of a SYMLINK considered as a node add?

No, but the SYMLINK had to be created to point to some real node, right? :)

That should all happen in one action.

thanks,
