Is the /dev/cdrom symlink pointing to the proper cdrom device?

On my system, the cdrom is the first IDE device on the second
interface. An ls -l /dev/cdrom shows that it points to /dev/hdc. On
SCSI cdroms or cdroms operated from a sound card interface it will be
different.

I am assuming that you have no trouble reading data from the cdrom. I
have had some really wierd problems with workbone. When you get X go
to Workman instead.
