Finding the CDROM
 
Hello all,

Is there a way to find which device is actually attached to the CDROM? The /dev/cdrom link is pointing to /dev/hda which I know is wrong.


Thanks!

Check the output of the command:
dmesg | grep CD

linux is case sensitive so use a capital CD.

Found it. Thank you!

It was on /dev/hdc
