linking to dev cooridinates

[Igor Gueths]

Hi Greg. I kind of figured this could be done via hardlinks. Gotta look at
the man page for ln to find the answer to that one I guess.

Gates go to hell, your OS is waiting for you there!

I have not tested /dev/sr0 yet to see if I can mount the device using this file, but could I possibly create a link called cdr thatwill interface to 0,0,0? These are the coordinates that cdrecord uses to access my burner.  I was thinking this just because then I could make sure that the device is going to work.  Also, then put an entry in fstab, make it rw, then I can just mv stuff from the disk to Cd without using cdrecord? Is this actually possible? Thanks!
