OK, I put that line in my lilo.conf file. When I tried to mount /dev/sr0, it mounted my cd-rom drive; I couldn't mount my cd-rw with sr0, sr1, or scd0, or scd1. So I unselected the scsi cdrom option in menuconfig. Thus, only scsi emulation and generic scsi were selected. At boot it appeared to recognize both the cdrom and the cd-rw. However, I cannot mount anything. Thanks...
