Okay, 
I read the man pages for both hotplug and udev. My eyes glazed over
each time. <grin/sigh> I have absolutely no clue what it is I must
actually _do_ to activate either of these programs and have them
automagically deal with the problem of assigning a unique /dev to
each removable device.  That is the USB hard drive will _always_ be
sda1 or sd(whatever)1 every time it is plugged in.

I am running FC3 with a 2.6(whatever) kernel.
