Great little utility. (I'm assuming > you do have IDE and not SCSI drives, right?).
My two CD drives are ATAPI CD-RW and ATAPI DVD/CD-R They are both mounted as ide-scsi so that they could be seen my x-cd-roast., I have given up with that utility, as it could not see my IDE HD. Can hdparm handle the ide-scsi mountings? The two drives are on my system as /dev/scd0 (/dev/cdrom, CD-RW) and /dev/scd1(/dev/cdrom2, DVD/CD).
