I got most of my info from /usr/doc/cdrecordxxxxx/README.ATAPI and
README.linux
When i first did it, in my hurried efforts I missed the point about
adding the hdc=ide-scsi stuff to lilo...that might make things
easier...I haven't tried it yet :-(
This is how i suppose you put it in the lilo.conf (sample lilo.conf
follows)
#--------snip here-----------------------
boot = /dev/hda
linear
delay = 40
timeout = 50
prompt
vga = normal
read-only
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
image = /boot/vmlinux-2.3.99-scsi-emu
label = linux
root = /dev/hda1
append "hdc=ide-scsi"
#------------snip here--------------------
