Just hit this problem myself. Here's what I did - let me know if it
works:
1) Remove any "hdc=ide-scsi" lines from /etc/lilo.conf (grub? No
idea...) and then run "lilo" as root.
2) # modprobe ide-cd
3) $ cdrecord dev=ATA -scanbus
... and use the x,y,z triple that cdrecord reports, as in
$ cdrecord dev=ATA:x,y,z <other_options>
HTH,
