2.6.x has a vastly different ide interface with respect to dvd/cdrw
drives than 2.4x. I'm not sure if your drives are scsi or ide, but
I'll assume IDE. If so, you'll want to discontinue using ide-scsi and
use direct drive instead - like /dev/hdc or /dev/hdd. You should
prabalby also remove references to ide-scsi in your lilo/grub append
line because they're no longer necessary with 2.6.x kernels.
