(/dev/cdrom is normally a symlink to the device file for your CD-R* device.) If you are operating the CD-RW in SCSI emulation mode (sometimes required for burning CDs), /dev/cdrom should be a symlink to /dev/scd1 . If you're using it in ATAPI (IDE) mode, it will be a link to /dev/hdX where X is a letter from a to d. a = primary master b = primary slave c = secondary master d = secondary slave Hope this helps!
