I put the dev stuff into /etc/profile - export CDR_DEVICE=/dev/sr0 or 
0,4,0 (for a genuine scsi cd burner).  With an IDE imitation scsi burner, 
I have used 0,0,0.  I had to create /dev/sr0.  What is this ATAPI:0,0 
or dev=0,1 about?

My scsi card module says I have sr0 so I made that - why scd1?

Can you explain in brief what the 0,0,0 means?  My scsi devices are ALL 
0,n,0 - what are these 0's about?

Would SBM let me boot from a scsi drive in a computer without scsi in the 
CMOS menu?
