I didn't have. I just added 'device atapicam' and it is still giving me the
same errors.
Looked on the man page, and found:
device ata
device atapicam
device scbus
device cd
device pass
I guess I need them as well? (Re-compiles _again_). Will I have to use the
burner through cd0 or acd0 now?
It also recommended against having a SCSI and an ATA representation of each
drive. Would it be safe to remove device acd from the kernel and only use cd
now?
