Thanks Scott, Glen, All
I just tried this as root and received the message that the CD R/W is not
device 0,0 or 0,0,0
Both Scott and Glen have almost exactly the same response as Glen but there
is one difference.
For you dev=0,0
For him dev=0,0,0
And I seem to recall from prevous motzing on my part that it is not 0,0 or
0,0,0 but something with 1's in it.
How does one determin what the correct device adress is?
Thanks
Frank
