I have been able to configure things without compiling to use ide-scsi
and manual mounting of cdroms just fine. I have so far not figured out a
way to make the automounter work, unless I recompile the kernel. I have
my own Redhat specific version of both methods detailed on a web page:
http://www.leewardfpga.com/cdrw.html

I am beginning to become disillusioned with the automounter though.
After a reboot, it works fine for a half a day or so, but then for some
reason that I have not yet pinned down, the automount daemon "magicdev"
goes berzerk and starts consuming significant amounts of CPU time and
affecting the performance of everything else. Killing it returns things
to normal, well except that now I don't have an automounter.
