Since you are in SCSI emulation, you need to change softlink: /dev/scd0 ->/dev/cdrom
(check dmsg to be sure) Actually, you do not need to recompile kernel to get ide-scsi to work. Debian default kernel has module support. Enable them by adding following line in lilo.conf append="hdc=ide-scsi apm=on" apm=on was for auto-shutdown-power. If you had hdd as cd-RW, change to hdd=. Good luck.
