If you are using kernel versions 2.4.x  and ide cdwriter 
you have to emulate it as a SCSI device.  For that pass 

1.hdX=ide-scsi to the kernel, where X is the last letter in ide device
name(hda for primary master, hdb for primary slave, hdc for secondary
master and hdd for secondary slave).

Lilo  append="hdX=ide-scsi"
grub  kernel xxxxxx  root=xxxxxxx hdX=ide-sci


2.  Insert the module ide-scsi

3.  issue the command cdrecord -scanbus
output will be some thing like 
scsibus1:
        1,0,0   100) 'CDWRITER' 'IDE1610
        1,1,0   
        etc
identify the numbers like x,x,x corresponding to your cdwriter

4.  issue the command
cdrecord -v -dao -eject speed=8 dev=x,x,x fs=3*10m sarge-i386-netinst.iso
replace x,x,x with the number corresponding to your device.

If using 2.6.x kernels steps 1 and 2 are not necessary

3. issue the command cdrecord dev=ATA: -scanbus
4. same as for 2.4.x kernels

In   Debian GNU/Linux normal users may not have permissions to use
cdrecord.  you have to add users to the group disk

addgroup username disk
