I've found some hints here and there (the eroaster FAQ, google, etc),
but the info hasn't helped.

I'm running sid, with a stock 2.6.3-1-686 kernel.

Then why do you want to use ide-scsi emulation? The kernel and the
userspace programs like cdrecord and cdrdao should be new enough to use
the writer without the emulation. I use my writer with the ide-cd
driver and k3b. All I had to do was to change ownership for /dev/hdc
and /dev/hdd from root.disk to root.cdrom.

on the other hand, i had just tested sarge netinst. it has the default
kernel 2.4.25-1-386. ide-cd and ide-scsi modules are loaded by default
but cdrecord -scanbus can't detect my cdwriter. xcdroast also needs
scsi-emulation for it it said to run properly.
