Bug Description
I have a installation with 2 IDE CD-Rom drives (one CD-R, one CD-RW). They seem
to be detected by the kernel at boot time (as hdc and hdd) as seen in the
/var/log/dmesg file:
hdc: CRD-8480C, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
hdd: HL-DT-ST GCE-8525B, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
But no device file are created in the /dev directory for them (no /dev/hdc*,
/dev/hdd* or /dev/cdrom* files exist), thus making then unaccessible in Ubuntu.
