linking to dev cooridinates

[Steve Holmes]

I don't think so either.  The CD-writing howtos all talk of having to
use CD mastering software such as cdrecord and you can't even do this
in windows.  The patterns on the CD are tracks that look nothing like
any typical file systems on a normal magnetic disk.  It's apples and oranges:).

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!
