thanks heaps.

just a general question though. why the scd0? i already know that cdrw's use scsi emulation (assuming that scd resembles scsi devices) but why use scd0 for my DVD drive? and how does linux use the fstab, does it just point the kernal to my hardware? if so how? of course if you could provide a link explaining all of this it would be greatly appreciated.

thanks for your help.
