[Bug 80989] Ubuntu detects a bogus CD-ROM device

[keyi]

Public bug reported:

I have two hard drivers on IDE1: hda & hdb, and one CD driver on IDE2: hdc.
After I substituted a new CD-ROM for the old one, there appears another hdd under /dev/.
In fact, I have only one CD driver!
Every time I boot the system, the kernel ring tells:

[4294671.758000] ide1: BM-DMA at 0xf008-0xf00f, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:pio
[4294673.561000] hdd: SCR-830, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

[4294675.941000] hdd: status error: status=0x00 { }
[4294675.941000] hdd: ATAPI CD-ROM drive, 0kB Cache
...

How can I get rid of this bogus device hdd?
