  | I wonder it worked.
  | Since 3.0.3 or so there is a new syntax for the cdrom 
  | device, like this:
  | disk = [ 'phy:/dev/sda,ioemu:hda,w', 'phy:/dev/scd0,hdb:cdrom,r' ]
  | 
  | With this settings I have access to the CDROM from windows.

My bad.. It worked on 3.0.2 when I installed the machine, and I had
since upgraded to 3.0.3.  With the fixed disk option I am now happily
CDroming again.

Thanks
