Steve I have looked deeper at the issue of audio cd's on cdwriters, and have tried it out myself with devfs enabled just like you have.
I found that with devfs enabled it will automatically set up /dev/cdrom to point to the /dev/cdroms directory. If you delete it, it comes back again a second later. The second thing I tried was configuring kscd to look directly at /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd which is what devfs names the SCSI interface on your cdwriter. But that causes kscd to crash. So the only conclusion I have is to say that if you want to play audio CD's on your cdwriter you will have to disable devfs. This is not such a bad thing, since in my experience Cdwriters cannot record with devfs enabled. (well my one cannot) (You can test that with 'cdrecord -scanbus' entered in a root terminal.) To disable devfs edit as root /etc/lilo.conf where it says "devfs=mount" change this to "devfs=nomount" Then rerun lilo with the command as root '/sbin/lilo' (check there were no error messages before trying to reboot) reboot your computer Now in your devfs directory you should have a device /dev/scd0 Make a link to here from /dev/cdrom ln -s /dev/scd0 /dev/cdrom Your audio discs should now work.....let me know if it works..
