Ressetting means it's cleaning the SCSI-bus aka your device is not responding. About making /dev/sr0. All devices has a major and a minor mode. These should be listed somewhere in the documentation. You can make the major and minor modes with 'mknod'. Try 'man mknod' for further information. Good luck Sven Esbjerg
