By default, it tries to use /dev/rcd0c to communicate with the drive, but that results in a bunch of "SCIOCCOMMAND ioctl failed: Permission denied" messages (even when running as root). According to the cd(4) man page: In addition the general scsi(4) ioctls may be used with the cd driver, if used against the fourth (raw/whole disk) partiton. (e.g. rcd0d) but after creating /dev/rsd0d with "mknod rcd0d c 15 3" and reconfiguring xmcd, I get "Cannot open /dev/rcd0d: errno=6" Does anybody have this working with 2.1.0?
