Additionally, when using cdrecord, you will use:

cdrecord dev=ATAPI:<X,Y,Z>

It is also possible to use a numbered ID when
using IDE/ATAPI: cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 Run
cdrecord dev=ATAPI -scanbus to find the valid IDs.

See http://linuxreviews.org/howtos/cdrecording/ and the man page.

Well assuming you are just using ide-scsi so you can access your
CD/DVD burner, it should be as simple as turing off
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDESCSI and turning on CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECD.

Then you will use /dev/hdX (or just /dev/cdrom or /dev/cdrw) instead
of /dev/sr0 as the device for whatever burn software you are using.
cdrecord will complain loudly about using a device node, but then
again, if cdrecord doesn't complain loudly about something, you
probably made a mistake!
