Yes, I'm familiar with the gentoo docs, however nothing they have
addresses my problem.  I haven't been successful at finding anything on
the forums either, as this is not necessarily a problem, but a lack of
understanding.  Every other document out their for installing a cd
burner doesn't apply.  

My question is how the devices work under gentoo.  I have very few
devices listed in /dev.  I have the sr* that I appear to need for the
cdburner, but I only have one cdrom device, and it is a symlink to a
location I'm not familiar with.  I"m more familiar with redhat's dev
system.
