It looks to me as though you are using udev (or devfs). When you use
ide-scsi, the cdrom is no longer /dev/hdb, but something like /dev/sr0 (not
sure).
A bit late now, but when asked for dmesg, it would have been more helpful to
give us it all, then we can get other clues. For instance - what version of
the kernel are you using. 2.6 doesn't need (indeed shouldn't have) ide-scsi.
You will need to load ide-cd though (put it in /etc/modules).
