For those of you who don't know what a PD disk is, it is a combination 4x
CD-ROM and PD writer.  You can format, re-format, and use it as a normal disk
read/write disk drive.  The drive itself uses 2 LUN, LUN 0 is PD LUN 1 is CD.
The latest version of FreeBSD (2.1) recognizezs both LUN's.  (Way to go)

I have posted the question to the NetBSD camp about PD disk support, and one
person responded by saying that in netbsd there were no changes neccessary to
enable the PD disk.

Does the FreeBSD driver have the same functionality in it???
