That's odd.
For me, /dev/hd* has group disk, except for hda and hdc, which are
both cdrom (and are where I put a DVD-ROM and a CD-RW. The installer
took care of appropriate group assignment for those two devices;
I dunno why that didn't happen for you. But at any rate, if hdc
is your CDRW, it oughta have a group of cdrom, with that group
having users who'd use it as its membership.
