You need to add one line ("device atapicam") to the kernel config file
and recompile the kernel to enable access to CD and DVD devices
through /dev/cd0
See section 16.6.9 in the Handbook, and also section 8 for recompiling a
kernel.
Installing K3B will provide a NERO-like GUI interface for burning CDs,
should you prefer to do it that way.
Nowhere near as hard as it sounds!
