ide-scsi is going to probably put the dev at /dev/sgX, rather than hdc

removing and adding mesh on my system, with an external CDR:

scsi0 : MESH
mesh: target 6 synchronous at 5.0 MB/s
  Vendor: MATSHITA  Model: CD-R   CW-7503    Rev: 1.06
  Type:   CD-ROM                             ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 6, lun 0
sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 20x/20x writer cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray
[root@powerbook-cooker root]# ls -l /dev/sg0
lr-xr-xr-x    1 root     root           36 Mar 25 19:52 /dev/sg0 ->
scsi/host0/bus0/target6/lun0/generic

HTH,
