I’m using a Pine64 Quartz64 Model A running DietPi as a SATA file server with a PCIe AHCI controller.  
A Samsung SH-B083A Blu-ray/DVD drive is correctly detected by libata:  
ata5.00: ATAPI: SAMSUNG DVDWBD SH-B083A, SB00, max UDMA/100  
and also appears as a SCSI CD-ROM:  
scsi 4:0:0:0: CD-ROM SAMSUNG DVDWBD SH-B083A SB00  
However, no /dev/sr0 device is created because the Quartz64 kernel does not include CONFIG\_BLK\_DEV\_SR.  
Could optical-drive support please be enabled for the Quartz64 Model A kernel configuration? Ideally:

CONFIG\_BLK\_DEV\_SR=m  
CONFIG\_CHR\_DEV\_SG=m  
CONFIG\_ISO9660\_FS=m  
CONFIG\_JOLIET=y  
CONFIG\_UDF\_FS=m  
UDF support would also be useful for DVD and Blu-ray data discs.

Thanks, all reasonable, indeed. Just added it to our kernel config: [quartz64: enable CD/DVD device and filesystem support · MichaIng/DietPi@d87c52a · GitHub](https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/commit/d87c52a)

Kernel build is running: [quartz64 · MichaIng/DietPi@d87c52a · GitHub](https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/actions/runs/36733537482)

~~It can be tested with~~

~~ 

```sh
G_DEV_TEST_FIRMWARE

```

 ~~

EDIT: I pushed them to our APT server, hence:

```sh
apt update
apt upgrade

```

Thank you for your quick work. I’ve installed the firmware update and will test it shortly. Much appreciated.
