Sheesh. How could anyone _not_ understand you need SCSI CD-ROM support

Welcome to the wonderful world of SCSIfying ATA. (Don't talk about ATAPI,
USB/Firewire, it's a different matter.)
Well -- the world where ATA, SCSI, USB, Firewire and what have you are
low-level drivers to a unifying storage layer is under non too obscure
definitions sort of not non-wonderful...
Admittedly, the unifying layer is a little SCSI inspired but so is a lot of
the hardware. As long as the users (the humans) resist SCSI inspiration, it
should be safe.
