Now that YOU'RE NOT USING IT AS A SCSI DEVICE:

   cdrecord --scanbus dev=ATAPI

Yes, because YOU'RE NO LONGER TELLING THE KERNEL IT'S A SCSI DEVICE,
which is what the append line in lilo.conf did.

IFF you have a recent kernel, it may work better as ATAPI.  IFF you
have an older kernel, YOU MUST USE IT AS A SCSI DEVICE.  Yes, it
mounts fine.  Your object, though, is to use it as a burner.
