No /dev/acd0c is created (I use > 5.1-current). It should be. Check to see if it's being detected at boot. If you're having problems with -CURRENT, though, you really need to use its mailing list to get help. You really should be reading the list if you're going to run -CURRENT anyway. Admittedly, it's a lot of mail, but that's just part of running the latest development code. > Do I have to emulate SCSI in order to use the CD writer? No. In fact, SCSI emulation almost certainly won't detect the device either if direct ATAPI support doesn't.
