Guess someone else mentioned that their expertise is in SCSI.

I've cooked a few RockRidge disks (one being a FreeBSD SNAPshot CD actually
:-) on the SCSI vers of this driver.  Generated the cooked RockRidge FS
image using 'mkisofs' in FreeBSD and then used a raw (well, cooked) image
writer in Windoze to slap it on the CDR.  I don't have experience with
writing the raw images in FreeBSD (as the drive belongs to a friend, and I
didn't want to generate coasters trying to figure it out).
