Several possibilities: The SCSI part has a linux emulation part (I don't remember the name ATM), give it a try and report back if it works. In the linux emulation exists a device wrapper feature. You can add the device there (in the source) which nero tries to open, and maybe add some more code which maps linux ioctls to FreeBSD ones (or at least identify which devices it tries to open and which ioctls it wants to do, maybe someone here on the list is willing to help out).
