I want to bind my Arduino Mega as /dev/ttyACM0. Sometimes, it turns out to be /dev/ttyACM0 and sometimes as /dev/ttyACM1.

I have taken help from this question and this tutorial

Someone please help me to achieve that as there are only 2 entries in /etc/udev/rules.d :-

  1. 20-crystalhd.rules
  2. 98-kexec.rules

The output of udevadm info -a -p $(udevadm info -q path -n /dev/ttyACM0) :-

Udevadm info starts with the device specified by the devpath and then walks up the chain of parent devices. It prints for every device found, all possible attributes in the udev rules key format. A rule to match, can be composed by the attributes of the device and the attributes from one single parent device.

Where should I edit my entries in which files and how. Please explain in somewhat depth as I am much naive!! Please help me establish this. It's already taking my mind and mood off.
