you bet.  i actually have it working on my dell inspiron 7500 laptop,
for which there is an internal CD-R/RW unit.  i'm going to post the
instructions on the inspiron linux mailing list, but i can send it

p.s.  note that this is specifically for IDE/ATAPI CD_RWs.
if you have a SCSI box, you're most of the way there already.
