Interest, I gues I missed this upgrading to udev, some time ago.
One one system I both  cd/DVDrom and a dvdrw dual layer. The NEC
3550A is a dual layer DVD RW which also support many CD & DVD 
formats.

grepping the dmesg file I see both devices:

ide1: BM-DMA at 0xb808-0xb80f, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:DMA
hdc: _NEC DVD_RW ND-3550A, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
hdc: ATAPI 48X DVD-ROM DVD-R CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache, UDMA(33)
and
  
hdd: CDU5211, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
hdd: ATAPI 52X CD-ROM drive, 120kB Cache, UDMA(33)


so I should make my /etc/fstab look like this?

/dev/hdc /mnt/?????    auto   noauto,user    0  0
/dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom    auto   noauto,user    0  0

I also have hal/ivman/dbus  installed.

sometimes ejecting media from the command line is a challege.
