    Hello,
    on Sarge there are many duplicating mount points for peripherals,
    like:
            /cdrom
            /cdrom0
            /floppy
            /media/cdrom
            /media/cdrom0
            /media/floppy
            etc.

    Why are the duplicates?
    What is the preferred mount point / or /media for peripherals?
    Is there any document about this issue?

    /FAU
