In summary, here are the steps you need to take:

1. Fix your mail setup so that it wraps at 72 columns.
2. Ensure that you have the following kernel options set:
   * SCSI support
   * SCSI CDROM support
   * IDE-SCSI Emulation
   * Generic SCSI device support
   * Be sure to turn off IDE CDROM support
3. Do the above and then check that /dev/cdrom is symlinked to /dev/scd0
4. Grab a copy of X-CD-Roast (apt-get install xcdroast) and test your
new stuff.
5. Burn CDs!
