Hello,

This is just for the record (to get it archived)

I found out that you need the "pass" device when you use cdrecord with
SCSI CD burners (this could be in pkg/DESCR ?)

There are two ways for burning CDs :
- an ATAPI burner is directly driven via the acd device and wormcontrol
(just like the example scripts show)
- an SCSI burner is only usable via cdrecord (and the "pass" device) -
the example script in share/examples/worm is confusing in using the
deprecated scsi(8) command and wormcontrol after that : cd(4), the SCSI
cd driver, does not support WORM ioctls

Anyway, cdrecord seems to be working (I've got at least one defective CD
out of ten) and mkhybrid is a good help for mastering Joliet CDs.
