The problem is exactly the same if you also have an SCSI.
Most, if not all, cd writing software assume an scsi device. The solution
is to use scsi emulation on the top of ide in order to present an scsi device
to the software.
So yes : you need to recompile your kernel to support scsi emulation and generic scsi
devices, then you put the
hdXX=ide-scsi
line in your lilo.conf
and
modprobe sg
in conf.module
