Most likely ide-cd is starting before ide-scsi and grabbing your CDROM device. At least this is the case with 2.4.18-k7 on my box. I have a file /etc/modutils/cdrw with the following contents: # First, get the ide-cd drive to not latch onto /dev/hdd options ide-cd ignore=hdd # # # Set up an alias for /dev/scd0 to load sr_mod alias scd0 sr_mod # # # Now get ide-cd followed by ide-scsi loaded before the SCSI drivers pre-install sg modprobe ide-scsi pre-install sr_mod modprobe ide-scsi pre-install ide-scsi modprobe ide-cd # end of cdrw file Run update-modules and when you boot the next time everything should be okay (note that hdd is my CDRW drive).
