Although Alvin Oga pointed me in the right direction, I have still not been successful in modifying my kernel to allow CD writing. The hang-up seems to be the instruction to remove "native ATAPI support". There are a number of references to ide in the configuration menu and I must not have removed all of them.
The simplest way is to pass the following boot option to the kernel (in /etc/lilo.conf if you use lilo): hdd=ide-scsi (if /dev/hdd is your cd writer).
If you really want to switch to SCSI emulation, just disable 'IDE/ATAPI CDROM support' (in the 'IDE, ATA and ATAPI block devices' menu),
and don't forget to enable SCSI CDROM and SCSI generic support.
HTH
I've have an IDE/ATAPI drive, and began to get frustrated with SCSI emulation--began to wonder if I could just burn with my ATAPI as is:
cdrecord dev=ATAPI -scanbus cdrecord -v -speed=? -dev=ATAPI:?,?,? /path/to/iso
?,?,? = the address specified in cdrecord dev=ATAPI -scanbus, and you should indicate whatever writing speed you'd like. I use speed=8.
Enjoy.
