    Hi,
    Does any one know if it is possible to conncet a
    DVD/CD R/W drive to the USB port on a pSeries 520 and
    read and write to the drive using cdrecord?
    Does any one know if the standard IBM/AIX drivers
    are able to read DVD/CD on this drive?
    If the drive can be attached to the USB port. Does
    anyone know if it can be used as the boot device?

    Thanks,
    Dwight
