How can I create the scd0 block device

[mzilikazi]

Trying to get my cdrom and cdrom1 working and having trouble. Now need to create a scd0 block device to continue getting my drive to work. Need to get my sr0 to point to scd0 which is my cdwriter(cdrom)

Well actually that's going about it the hard way. You don't need the multiple levels of symlinks. One will do.

rm -rf /dev/cdrom
ln -s /dev/scd0 /dev/cdrom
ls -al /dev/cdrom
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Jun 3 17:31 /dev/cdrom -> /dev/scd0

Now you should be able to mount it. Put in a data disc (not a music disc)

mount /dev/cdrom /cdrom

Now anything that wants to use /dev/cdrom can use /dev/sr0
