The wodim command from the cdrtools package includes logic (-scanbus option) which is able to identify SCSI devices under Cygwin. It doesn't map them to the /dev namespace, but it shows that something like you need may be possible. Wodim is also able to take a drive letter and directly use that when writing an ISO file to the drive. Maybe you could start there and craft a tool to do what you need. -Jeremy -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
