Hi everyone, I'm going through the multimedia section of the handbook, ostensibly to look for grammar errors, but I noticed that most of the examples are SCSI-centric, and do not seem to make use of named device nodes. I do not have access to a SCSI CD drive myself, so I ask here to get some more information about the current state of accessing SCSI CD drives. In particular, I am looking at this page: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/sound-mp3.html For example, in its discussion of the use of cdda2wav, it uses devices by their SCSI unit numbers, but I presume that one could also point it at /dev/cd0 (since /dev/acd0 works just fine) -- is this true? The section also mentions that dd(1) can be used to extract audio tracks from ATAPI drives. Is it (still) true that SCSI drives do not export the individual tracks as device nodes (e.g. ATAPI drives offer /dev/acd0t01)? Thanks for the help, Ben Kaduk
