Using Your CD-ROM Drive
Operating the CD-ROM Drive
Verifying the CD-ROM Drive Operation
To verify that your workstation can communicate with the CD-ROM drive,
follow these steps:
1 In a terminal window, enter the following command:
/usr/sbin/ioscan -d sdisk RETURN
After a few moments the ioscan utility lists all of the SCSI I/O devices it could
find. The list appears similar to the following:
