Actually i was using the nice list of CD device files
which is provided according to the SCSI Howto but has
been deprecated by Documentation/devices.txt
whereas Documentation/scsi/scsi.txt still refers to the
SCSI Howto.

/proc is an interesting thing. But where is it documented ?
On what feature in /proc can i rely ?
/proc/scsi/sg/devices once gave me hints about the activities
of my drives. Not any more. :(

I will begin to collect /proc addresses about CD drives.
Maybe one can develop a kindof expert system from that list.


Have a nice day :)

Thomas
