This would appear to be not true. Make sure, in fact, that /dev/sr0 and 
/dev/sr1 are different devices. What is the output of 'll /dev/sr?' ?

Somewhere along the line, your OS thinks /dev/sr0 is the same as 
/dev/sr1. The problem is figgerin' out why.

IIRC, both of these drives are actually IDE and you're doin' 
SCSI-emulation, right? And, you did some mknod's on your own, right?
 From your previous post:
  $ mknod /dev/sr0 b 11 0
and
  $ mknod /dev/sr1 b 11 0

I'm not all that familiar with the mknod command, but the parameters you 
list for both sr0 and sr1 are the same.

Might be your problem there...

HTH,
