Hello Malcolm,

Try "-g /dev/rcd0g".  I'm a NetBSD newbie, but I recently got cdparanoia
working using /dev/rcd0c, and my SCSI drive is on scsibus0 target 2 lun 0,
so I am guessing* that the letter of the raw scsi device corresponds to the
target number.  The minor number of the device node would seem to back this
guess.
