The emulated external CD-Rom is part of an automatic install feature
and it will not always behave the same way upon start-up. The way this
feature has been designed is that it is controlled via USB vendor
specific control messages from the driver. Ideally the settings that
dictate how the driver acts are editable from user-space (preferably
non-volatile) and do not require re-compilation of the driver.
