Hi,
I assume that the kernel is correctly configured (see CD-writing HOWTO).
you must edit /etc/conf.modules and write the right "alias" and "options" in
it.
Probably something like
alias scd0 sr_mod # loads sr_mod starting scd0
alias scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi # emulates SCSI controller
options ide-cd ignore=hdb # if /dev/hdb is your CD-writer
If your kernel needs to be recompliled try reading kernel HOWTO and README's in
/usr/src/readme
I hope it helps.
Bye.
