When you added the append to lilo and rebooted your the mount point dvd was most
likely changed from cdrom to scd1.
If so you need to: ln -s scd1 /dev/dvd
(To access the drive you may need to create the proper entry in /etc/fstab)

You have to run setup, under CD Settings select the proper drive as CD Writer Device
and select a drive for Primary and Secondary Read Device then Save configuration.
