This response the is correct one; for some reason, the drive has to show
up as a SCSI one, so the ide-scsi module takes care of that emulation.
You then have to find the device numbers, which will look like (0,0,0)
when you do a cdrecord -scanbus and use that as an argument when using
cdrecord dev=0,0,0 (for instance)...
