1) Make a file (I called it cdrw) in /etc/modules that loads proper

it's /etc/modutils


# This assumes IDE-CD is a module rather than copmiled into kernel.
#
options ide-cd ignore="hdd"
alias scd0 sr_mode
pre-install sg          modprobe ide-scsi
pre-install sr_mod      modprobe ide-scsi
pre-install ide-scsi    modprobe ide-cd

becasue ide-cd grabs the drive before ide-scsi could


2)run "update-modules" to make this take effect
3) Make the /etc/modules file look like this:
$> cat /etc/modules
# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file should contain the names of kernel modules that are
# to be loaded at boot time, one per line.  Comments begin with
# a "#", and everything on the line after them are ignored.

sr_mod
sg
ide-cd
ide-detect
$>
4) Have this line in your grub.conf with ide-scsi=hdd option:
kernel   /vmlinuz-2.4.24-1-686 root=/dev/hdb5 hdd=ide-scsi ro single

Reboot machine and give the command "cdrecord -scanbus" and you should see your SCSI emulated CD-RW.

you hit it right:) Thanks.
