I'm a bit lost now. I taught that the main request of Joerg is that the
kernel should treat all ATAPI cdrom as ide-scsi devices dy default so
Linux users would not need to give the option hdX=ide-scsi when booting
if they want to use a cd burner. If someone would want to use the ide-cd
module, they would have to use the option hdX=ide-cd.
If it is so then I don't see the need for a new IDE and SCSI
implementation. Am I missing something?
