Step 1: Check out the major and minor numbers for your system
        for scd*: #ls -al /dev/scd*
        
        Normally /dev/scd0 is 11, 0 (so if you have scd1 and 2
        intact, it should be 11, 1 and 11, 2 respectively.
                
Step 2: Create the device with mknod (as root)

        #mknod -m666 /dev/scd0 b 11 0

        (viz. permissions, device_name, device_type, major and
        minor numbers)
        
Step 3: Check ownership for your distro.(Normally scd* devices
        have root.disk): #chown root.disk /dev/scd0
