At Todd's suggestion, I'm going to give gcombust a try, but should I
decide I don't like that, I'm willing to give k3b another look. In the
meantime, question: Why does doing something to make it think that's an
IDE device is a SCSI device make this work better? Is there any reason
that I would *need* to do that for the DVD ROM?
