First off, rpjday suggested another run of cdrecord -scanbus:
Cdrecord 1.9 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2000 Jörg Schilling
Linux sg driver version: 2.1.39
Using libscg version 'schily-0.1'
scsibus0:
0,0,0 0) 'SEAGATE ' 'ST336704LC ' '0004' Disk
0,1,0 1) *
0,2,0 2) *
0,3,0 3) *
0,4,0 4) *
0,5,0 5) *
0,6,0 6) *
0,7,0 7) *
No joy so far.

Thanks. Did an 'rmmod ide-cd' right before I ran the cdrecord -scanbus
above. Have also tried mounting the device, like so:
[root@fs2 /root]# mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom
mount: the kernel does not recognize /dev/scd0 as a block device
(maybe `insmod driver'?)
No difference thus far.
My complete lsmod listing is now:
[root@fs2 /root]# lsmod

Could unloading the module be insufficient to make the change? Might it
need to be removed from the system? (seems unlikely...)

This kernel has SCSI support compiled directly in, since we boot from a
SCSI hard drive. Might that cause a problem? Should I be doing all
modules or all monolithic rather than mixing and matching?
