iso-scan question



iso-scan currently uses 

        for type in scsi ide; do
               if [ -d /dev/$type ]; then
                       find /dev/$type -type b
               fi
	done

to find available devices.

What do ya'll think about changing that to the following.

	find /dev/discs -follow -type b

If you really want cdroms, this would get it.
        
	for type in discs cdroms; do

As far as I can tell, this gives you the same results, except I 
don't have to mimic the /dev/ide or /dev/scsi directories for a
2.2.25 kernel. (Okay, at least I haven't needed to yet.)

Thanks,

Stephen
