I have to connect my Plextor PX-716A dvd-writer via an external 
IDE-to-USB/1394 Icybox (IB-550UE-B-BL) to my freebsd-6.0-RELEASE pc. 
This pc is an IBuddy Desknote A928 without room for internal extra 
devices. So I bought an Icybox enclosure, put the plextor in it and 
connected the icybox through USB:

umass0: vendor 0x0402 USB 2.0 Storage Device, rev 2.00/1.05, addr 2
da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
da0: <USB 2.0 Storage Device 0111> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-0 device
da0: 40.000MB/s transfers
da0: 0MB (1 0 byte sectors: 0H 0S/T 0C)

How do I tell FreeBSD that this is a DVD-writer rather than a hard disk?
