I may be wrong, but I think 2.0 *doesn't* support multisession CD's
on SCSI CDROM drive. SCSI-II spec don't include any support for multi-session
CD's. You have to take a 2.1 kernel (I recommend 2.1.17, not too much unstable :),
cd /usr/src/linux, make menuconfig, enable vendor specific cdrom support,
make-kpkg -revision custom.1 kernel-image, dpkg -i ../kernel-image...
