FWIW, I have set up all my ATAPI burners up according to the following
mini-howto. Mandrake 8.1 does this for you if the drive was in the machine
when you installed.

My burner, a Creative 12x10x32 is master on second ide channel, slave is 40x
ide reader. I turned off devfs, although I think it will work with it on. I
don't use supermount.
Machine is ASUS P5AB board, K62-450, 256 meg ram, burns fine at 10x cdrw and
12x cdr, usually need to hit detect scsi drive in gcombust before I burn or
run cdrecord -scanbus.
Hope this helps.
