Since you're using Linux 2.4.x, you'll want the CD-ROM
on ide-scsi, so it should appear as /dev/sr0 (or
perhaps /dev/sr1).
I'm using 2.4.27 also, and this is my setup:
%%%%%%FILESYSTEM:
/cdrom -> /media/cdrom
/media/cdrom/ -> /media/cdrom0
%%%%%%%/etc/fstab:
/dev/sr0 /media/cdrom0 iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
I remember that originally, /dev/hdc was the cdrom
drive, and I had to manually change it to /dev/sr0 for
cd-writing to work.
Perhaps when you installed cdrecord, some script
decided to automagically fix your fstab, but messed it
up instead, so check that out.
