Default /dev/ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/cd problem - Thanks in advance

Well this probably doesn't happen everyday to people. BUT after my
system crashed /dev/ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/cd <I believe that's
the proper device> disapeared off my dev list.
IT appears /dev/hdc is linked to this as well as /dev/cdrom (in some
way). However this means I cannot use my CDROM (woopie but it's still a
real pain for me).
So I need to remake this with mknod my problem is.. what are the Major
and Minor #'s supposed to be for this? and why is mknod's documentation
so piccyunish? I suppose it's ment to be used automatically or by a
program that knows what it's doing.

Some suggestions would be welcome here.
If someone could give me a clue I would appreciate it (low on clues lately).
