cdrecord -scanbus fails

["Thomas H. George" <tomgeorge@spininternet.com>]

It used to work.

I have append="hdd=ide-scsi" in lilo.
On bootup dmesg|grep hdd shows

	ide-setup: hdd=ide-scsi
		ide1: BM-MDA at 0xf008-0xf00f, BIOS settings: hdc DMA hdd: DMA
	hdd: Norcent RWJ-401S, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

I have burnt cd's with the Norcent CD-RW drive in the past.  Now, 
suddenly xcdroast can't find it and cdrecord -scanbus fails.
