Hi !

I have a project : http://linuxconsole.free.fr where I am using Linux to 
boot on CD then use mutimedia apps & games.

Options (ex networks, games prefs & backups) can be saved by burning new 
session on CD.

My problem is :  with ATAPI CD-writers, there are not other choices than 
precise where is the CD-writer at boot prompt, ie which device uses SCSI 
emulation (/dev/hddb, /dev/hdc or /dev/hdd).

It would be better if automaticaly only the CD-Writer had  ide-scsi 
module enabled.

So my question : is it a good idea to make a new option for ide module 
that use "ide-scsi" only with CD-writers devices ?

(I could write a patch)

Thanks.
