This may be caused by the kernel and module configuration on your machine. If
the SCSI CDROM driver is compiled into the kernel then you will see something
like the following...
Detected scsi removable disk sdc at scsi1, channel 0, id 5, lun 0
Vendor: YAMAHA Model: CRW4260 Rev: 1.0e
Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02
SCSI device sdc: hdwr sector= 512 bytes. Sectors= 2091050 [1021 MB] [1.0 GB]
sdc: Write Protect is off
sdc: sdc1
Detected scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi1, channel 0, id 6, lun 0
sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 6x/6x writer cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray
Uniform CDROM driver Revision: 2.13
If the SCSI CDROM driver is compiled as a module then you will see the previous
output when the moduleis loaded with the 'insmod' or the 'modprobe' command.
Either way you should see mention of your CDROM in the 'dmesg' command output.
Since your Linux box sees other devices on the chain, check that the sr_mod.o
module is loaded. Try 'grep sr /proc/modules'. If sr_mod isn't listed then
try 'modprobe sr_mod'.
