Brian,
Quoting from "man grip" (down in the "Common Questions" section):
Q:
I can play cd's fine, but my ripper can't access the
drive. Why not?
A:
Rippers (cdparanoia, at least) need access to the generic
SCSI device as well. See the "Running Grip/GCD" section
for more information on this.
For further information about setting up "SCSI Generic" emulation, see
the CD-Writing HOWTO http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/CD-Writing-HOWTO.html
