Well, CD writers and CD ROMs or DVD ROMs are supported by both the
ide-cd and ide-scsi driver. The system does not know which driver to
use for which device, unless you configure it properly. Until then, the
driver loaded first is used. Btw, you can also tell the drivers which
devices to use by configuring your boot loader, e.g.:
append="hdc=ide-scsi"
This will also work if the ide-cd driver is built into the kernel, e.g.
with the 2.4.18-bf2.4 kernel.
