First question:
Why a custom kernel ? I suppose that you own a IDE CD writer. For that you
don't have to make a new compilation of the kernel. You just have to add the
modules you need with modconf (modules ide-scsi and scsi-generic-support), and
change Lilo.

I think that apt-cdrom is looking for the device /dev/cdrom. Try:
mount /dev/cdrom /cdrom
If it works, I don't know, but if it doesn't it means that your CDROM has
changed from a device to one other. Are you sure you haven't emulate it as a
SCSI device ?
