I dont even do that.
I have 'options ide-cd ignore /dev/hdd' in a file called my_crap in
/etc/modutils/, and in /etc/modules I list ide-cd before ide-scsi.
(and ran update-modules after the edit)

Seems to work on a 2.4.5 and 2.4.19 kernel.

The reason I use ide-cd for the reader is that I cant rip
CD's using ide-scsi, not sure if this is normal.
