You should be using /etc/modules.conf if you are using Mandrake 7.2.
I believe the files below are from a basic install of Mandrake 7.2
which automatically detected and configured the burner.
You may also need to adjust your lilo to reflect proper memory size for
your machine, something like append=" hdc=ide-scsi mem=128m"
Find it at /dev/scd0. Burn CD's with something like:
mkisofs -r -J /path/I/want/to/burn |cdrecord -
# cat /etc/modules.conf
pre-install pcmcia_core /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia start
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
alias sound-slot-0 cmpci
alias block-major-11 scsi_hostadapter
pre-install plip modprobe parport_pc ; echo 7 > /proc/parport/0/irq
alias scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi
alias eth0 dmfe
