There's your problem. For the SCSI emulation to work you have to remove the
IDE CDROM support. IIRC I had to *completely* remove the IDE support,
though it might work if you compile it as a module. I figured that with the
SCSI emulation I wouldn't need the IDE syupport, so I left it completely
out.

Once you remove the IDE support, these steps should produce working results.
