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
#
# cat /etc/lilo.conf

        append=" hdc=ide-scsi" 
        read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz
        label=failsafe
        root=/dev/hda5
        append=" hdc=ide-scsi failsafe"
        read-only
other=/dev/hda1
        label=windows
        table=/dev/hda
other=/dev/fd0
        label=floppy
        unsafe

# cat /etc/default/cdrecord
CDR_DEVICE=0,0
