I have noticed the same thing. In particular there are 8 LUNs for
each CD device. I've seen it with different brands of CD drives
(HP, Philips, Hitachi(I think)). Happens whether the device is
CDROM or CDRW. I don't know any value to this behaviour. But
it is awkward. In each case have a CDROM and a CDRW on the same
IDE bus. Each is running RH6.0 with kernel 2.2.10. In each case
I have had to edit /dev/MAKEDEV to create more SCSI device nodes
because the default was only 8, and that only covered the first
CDROM.
