[Sderby] Playing music from CDRW

[Mini Mike]

I had the same problem, I have a CDRW on secondry master IDE and DVD on=20
primary slave.  /dev/cdrecorder was pointing to the DVD drive, as was=20
/dev/cdrom and /dev/dvd!!!  CDRW became /dev/scd1 and dvd became /dev/sr0=
=2E =20
Just delete /dev/cdrom, etc and recreate the symlinks.
