You need to add the following to your lilo.conf:

append="hdd=ide-scsi"

(or whatever hd device your IDE burner is.)

Add this, run lilo, reboot and check the ide-scsi module gets loaded.

This _should_ be all you need to do to get it to work.

Well, it happens that I also have problems with ide-scsi
I used to burn CDs perfectly using this emulation on Mandrake and RedHat,
but
after I moved to debain, and enabled IDE SCSI emulation, my USB devices
don't
work (programs aren't able to detect USB devices), while it used they used
to
work before the emulation was enabled. I also wonder if there is a way to
burn CDs without IDE SCSI emulation.
