If you have executed lilo after add that line there's no matter with this, 
but this is a extrange thing indeed.

Try this command:

crom:~# dmesg | grep BOOT_IMAGE
Kernel command line: auto BOOT_IMAGE=Linux ro root=302 hdc=ide-scsi 
hdd=ide-scsi

You should see something similar (but with hdb/hdc instead my hdc/hdd 
devices).

Of course, if you detect your scsi devices with CD-Record the but should not 
be here.

I've had problems with scsi luns before, but I'm not sure if this will have 
something to see with your trouble. 

crom:~# dmesg | grep scsi
Kernel command line: auto BOOT_IMAGE=Linux ro root=302 hdc=ide-scsi 
hdd=ide-scsi
scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices
Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
Attached scsi CD-ROM sr1 at scsi0, channel 0, id 1, lun 0
sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 40x/40x writer cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray
sr1: scsi3-mmc drive: 32x/32x cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray
crom:~#

If you're having problems with luns, you'll get probable more than a sr0 
device for each ide cdrom (i.e., the trouble I've before was that sr0 and sr1 
were assigned to hdc while sr2 and sr3 were assigned to hdd instead just one 
sr for each one). If you see something with this, you'll need to add this to 
your lilo.conf append:

max_scsi_luns=1

So, your lilo.conf append line should looks similar to:

append="max_scsi_luns=1 hdb=ide-scsi hdc=ide-scsi";

Thats all I can tell you for now, good luck.
