What is your configuration? Keep in mind if the CD-RW is the on IDE-0 as slave it is probably identified as hdb... you can run #dmesg | less to read what is identified on the IDE controllers. CD-RW have to use scsi interface drivers. Perhaps the Seagate is on IDE-1 as master and would be hdc? Also run #lsmod | less to see which modules *are* loaded.
