But I  heard that cd.device would work under WB 3.1, but I haven't someone to
confirm this! Some says it works woth their SCSI drives, but they are not sure
which filesystem they use, etc.
Do you know exactly where the cd.device is used? I know  that Archos Overdrive
and CD32 uses it. SCSI CD-ROMs connected  to the  Squirrel interface also
works!
