Thanks - I should have known that someone had made a file system for
this. However I still think it would be great to be able to pass the
actual /dev/cdrom on to the guest OS, but I must admit that I have not
grasped the complexity yet on doing this, so I am going to do some
Qemu code reading before continuing - I am not even sure if it can be
done in VMWare although I  seam to remember that Windows as a host OS
running VMWare allows the guest access to a audio cdrom.
