That's a different problem. The Drives key is only used to override
the autodetected drive types, so it shouldn't matter if it's
missing. The drive symlinks themselves are obviously more important,
and there's definitely room for improvement in that area. Still, I
think we should try as much as possible to make things work even
without the symlinks.
