Re: [DISCUSSION]: 2.4.1-pre8: Detection of CD-ROM/CD-R/CD-RW drives Part

[Shawn Starr]

2.2.18 and below:

Jan  5 16:56:54 coredump kernel: hdc: YAMAHA CRW2100E, ATAPI CDROM drive
Jan  5 16:56:54 coredump kernel: hdc: ATAPI 40X CD-ROM CD-R/RW drive,
8192kB Cache, (U)DMA

2.4.x:

Jan 15 19:43:05 coredump kernel: hdc: YAMAHA CRW2100E, ATAPI CDROM drive
Jan 15 19:43:06 coredump kernel: hdc: ATAPI 40X CD-ROM CD-R/RW drive,
8192kB Cache, (U)DMA

the standard ATAPI detects this correctly.
