Can't find CD-Recorder

Hello.

I have a LiteOn IDE 12x recorder, but I simply can't find it / set it up as recording device.
I've tried passing hdd=ide-scsi to the kernel (heard it from somewhere else) but that doesn't help either.
It works fine as normal CD-ROM device.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

This howto will probalby help! Do not forget to compile the SCSI emulation into a module!

Ok, I got the cd-r working just fine.
Problem is, I have hdd=ide-scsi appended to the kernel to make it work, and now it seems I do not have a cd-rom drive. Only the burning software can find it. This makes it so I have to reboot with new parameters every time I want to record cds.
Any other way to solve it?

Thanks

When your CD Writer is set to SCSI emulation, you need to have 'SCSI CD-ROM support' enabled in your kernel configuration to be able to read from the drive.
