I am trying to access the cdrom drive in QEMU 1.5.0, but can't. This is the
error I see: qemu-system-ppc: -cdrom /dev/cdrom: could not open disk image

on Mac OS X. Anybody else notice this problem?
Mac OS X doesn't provide a /dev/cdrom link. You have to point it directly to
the target device. To get a list of available devices, try
$ diskutil list
Also make sure that all partitions and file systems on top of the CD-ROM are
unmounted (diskutil unmount or just umount), as OSX won't allow direct access
to /dev/disk1 otherwise.

The -cdrom /dev/cdrom option always worked in the past. Just not with version
1.5.0.
Hrm. CC'ing Andreas and Peter. They're the best matches to people
knowing their way around OSX host support :). Also Changing qemu-ppc@ to
qemu-devel@, as this is 100% unrelated to the ppc target.
