if your CD-writer is ide you need:

1. the modules sg and ide-scsi installed in the kernel 
   (with modconf or insmod)

2. the packages:  cdrecord  mkisofs
   for the CD-audio cdda2wav or cdparanoia

3. into lilo add this line:

append = "apm=on apm=power-of idebas=33 hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi max_scsi_luns=1"

don't forget to do  /sbin/lilo 

4. create the directory /cdrw

5. into the file fstab:

/dev/scd0 /cdrom iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0

/dev/scd1 /cdrw iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0

6.create the synbolic link:

ln -s /dev/hdc  /dev/cdrom

ln -s /dev/hdd  /dev/cdrw

7. do cdrecord -scanbus   to verify ...

man  cdrecord mkisofs cdda2wav cdparanoia

hth.
