So... what happens if you have something using one of the backends loaded,and you want to change what you're using for the second USB device? I still think we should just use module aliases and either don't auto-bind, or separate the aliases by which driver is best. > With ub, it is not obvious that the media is indeed a CD-ROM (or a DVD). > Since ub issues no MODE SENSE command, everything is an array of blocks. > So, suppose that everything works, how would you know that we're > installing from /dev/uba or whatever?

Generally, the code expects CD-ROMS to be detectable as such - this is easy enough with IDE or SCSI (and SCSI-using-things.)
