No, i don't think so. The /dev/scdx are the devices used for scsi cdrom
devices and such, and they are numbered as discovered (scd0, scd1, ...).

As thus, i am not sure if it is possible to partition them easily this
way, not sure though, since dvd-ram should be handled as storage
devices, not as cdroms.
