Actually, the CDPlayer Release notes say that if you've got a SCSI
device 0 and 1 hooked up this CDPlayer app that comes w/ 3.0 won't
find your CD-ROM drive.  It's a bug.

I think a lot of people are going to be bitten by this one: people who
bought a NeXT setup (and therefore now have a SCSI device set to ID#
1) and added a new device (for booting) at #0.  NeXT didn't ship me
the docs for the Quantum drive I received so I have no idea how to
change the Quantum drive (now my #1 SCSI ID device) to something like
#3.

From what I saw of the CDPlayer app that NeXT provides as a demo in
3.0, it looks neat, but I hope they fix this situation soon.
