Try loading these modules in this order:

insmod parport
insmod paride
insmod epat
insmod pcd
insmod pg

I run RHL62 and the generic kernel handles running my HP CDW7200e just
fine.  You can check the status of the drive using cdrecord -scanbus.  To
mount the cd in the drive type mount /dev/pcd0 <mount>.

You can find additional material at
