Hello

	FreeBSD currently doesn't have drivers for Sony CDU-531A.  It's a
really old caddy-type cdrom (1991).  The cdu535 I think is similar, but
external.  It has it's own interface card (not ide or scsi).  Actually,
the cdu31A is similar but is different enough that the drivers don't work.

I think it's a 1x or 2x (maybe 1x) and pretty slow.  It's probably not
worth even supporting.  The data transfer rate is only a little faster than a 
floppy.

Just checking to see if anyone has a driver, or has ported one from Linux.
My guess is no, there isn't any.

Thanks

   Donn
