First, check where /dev/cdrw is pointing to. After activating ide-scsi,
it should point to /dev/scd0 or /dev/scd1 instead of /dev/hd*,
depending on the amount of drives you activated ide-scsi for.
Second, depending on your Kernel, make sure you told the ide-cd driver
to ignore the CDRW drive. If the ide-cd driver is compiled into the
Kernel (e.g. installation Kernel), configure your bootloader:
append="hdc=ide-scsi" #(if hdc is your cdrw)
If you use lilo, run it from the command line after changing the
configuration. This will also work if ide-cd is compiled as a module.
If you use a module only configuration (ide-cd as a module), you can
also make sure that either
ide-cd does not get loaded before ide-scsi
ide-cd is told to ignore the cdrw. Add
options ide-cd ignore=hdc
To some file in /etc/modutils and run update modules.
