I've enter setpu mod in "X-CD-Roast" and I got the message:
Code:

No CD-Writer or CD-ROM device detected.
For ATAPI/IDE devices unter Linux you have to enable SCSI-Emulation in the kernel in order to activate them.
Please see the X-CD-Roast manual how to do that.

I've sow this:

but didn't get how do to it..

OPen the config file for you boot loader and add the line

Code:
append="hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi


In the file before the line that says image.

You also need to lsmod as root, to find out whetehr all the modules have loaded.

If you don't see the mod ide-scsi in the list, try typing:

Code:
modprobe ide-scsi


as root and then lsmod, it should appear if you have configured them in the kernel.

If they do appear in lsmod, try typing this as root:

Code:
cdrecord -scanbus


LEt us know what that returns...

Have you tried as root:

cdrecord -scanbus

Example: (mine)
Code:
bash-2.05b# cdrecord -scanbus
Cdrecord 2.01a14 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2003 Jörg Schilling
Linux sg driver version: 3.1.24
Using libscg version 'schily-0.7'

If cdrecord isn't seeing it, chances are you don't have your kernel compiled for it properly.

You could also try without all that scsi stuff:
Code:
cdrecord dev=ATAPI -scanbus
