Mel is 1000% right. I personally needed to access my ATAPI device through SCSI so that I can burn a DVD. My idiotic statement is wrong way to do it. Actually I had in my devfs.conf edited as it is outlined in the section 18.6.9 of the Handbook. Since I got error for DVD burn I posted a message and somebody pointed out that since I was running generic kernel I had to add atapicam_load="YES" into my /boot/loader.conf. After that I followed the example from section 18.7.3 to burn DVD and everything worked perfectly. Letter that day I used K3b to burn a few music CDs. I was following the direction from the Handbook and from FreeBSD-Gnome documentation to do that. I apologize to everyone for my spam mails. I will think twice before I post some stupidity again. In particularly, I apologize to the sender of original message for ill advice. Sincerely, Predrag Punosevac
