Mapping disks to fixed mountpoints

Hi,

when I connect several FireWire disks, they're available through

/dev/sda
/dev/sdb
...

where sda is the disk connected first, sdb the disk I connected second and so
on. Is there a way to identify the disks in a way so that certain disks are
always available through a previously specified device? F.i., on of my disks
should always be accessible through /dev/sdd, no matter if I connected three
other disks before...

Would appreciate a short description of how to do that (I'm sure it's possible
somehow) or a pointer to the appropriate docs...

Thanks,
Raimund
