| Value | Device |

| 0 | Disk |
| 1 | Tape |
| 5 | CD-ROM |
| 8 | Tape changer |
The "N" in the "/dev/sgN" device is the line number in this table (starting from 0) corresponded corresponding to the devices CHARON-AXP will use.Thus the output provided by the commands above without taking the header into account so here "/dev/sg0" will be corresponds to the the CD-ROM mapping in this example.
