You can rename/relocate device nodes by using the next optional field.
<device regex> <uid>:<gid> <octal permissions> [>path]
So if you want to place the device node into a subdirectory, make sure the path
has a trailing /. If you want to rename the device node, just place the name.

This will relocate "hda" into the drives/ subdirectory.
hdb 0:3 660 >cdrom
This will rename "hdb" to "cdrom".

the format:
<device regex> <uid>:<gid> <octal permissions> [<@|$|*> <command>]
