I have just obtained a DEC RRD40 cdrom reader for my DECstation 3100.
Now, how to use the little sucker?! 

1) What type of device should this guy be defined as in /dev? rz 
diskdrive, pseudo tape drive? The manual that came with it only
seems to know about installation and testing under VMS.

2) Is there any Unix-based pd software available for this guy to read CDs
formatted according to ISO 9660 (I think those numbers are
correct!) standard. If so where can it be obtained?

Please reply to me at domain address twillis@drao.nrc.ca

Thanks,
