# One thing to try is to run "modconf" and add "SCSI Emulation" (and
# possibly another option or two... sorry, don't remember right now).
#
# I could *not* get it to work with the default debian kernel. I tried
# adding some modules with modconf, added a similar line to
# /etc/lilo.conf, and so on. It seems to me I was missing the "sr_mod"

I've got IDE-SCSI emulation working, and this is what I had to do:
Added:
append="ignore=hdb ide-scsi=hdb"
to the appropriate section in /etc/lilo.conf. Of course, 'hdb' is
probably different on your machine ;)
After I had booted, I also needed to 'modprobe ide-scsi'. I think. I
don't have a burner, but I borrow a friend's for backup every month. So
I never added it to /etc/modules or anything.
