Not sure how VMware does that; but actually I didn't even succeed accessing /dev/cdrom on the host when an audio cd is inserted: dd if=/dev/hdc of=/dev/null bs=2352 count=1 dd: reading `/dev/hdc': Input/output error 0+0 records in 0+0 records out 0 bytes transferred in 0.077570 seconds (0 bytes/sec) I used a blocksize of 2352 because I've read that's the size for audio cds... It didn't work with bs=1 either. So maybe Qemu would have to access the cd drive on a lower level than via /dev/cdrom?
