Hi Ben, others,

Try loading them manually, and then see what cdrecord does:
> 
> # insmod loop
> # insmod sg
> # insmod sr_mod
> # insmod ide-scsi

[root@localhost sbin]# insmod loop
bash: insmod: command not found
[root@localhost sbin]# ./insmod loop
insmod: loop: no module by that name found
[root@localhost sbin]# 
[root@localhost sbin]# ./insmod sg
insmod: sg: no module by that name found
[root@localhost sbin]# ./insmod sr_mod
insmod: sr_mod: no module by that name found
[root@localhost sbin]# ./insmod ide-scsi
insmod: ide-scsi: no module by that name found

Wouldn't that mean that they are loaded by the kernel?

[root@localhost sbin]# ls -l /dev/cdrom*
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            8 Jan 16 20:44 /dev/cdrom ->
/dev/hdc
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            8 Jan 16 20:44 /dev/cdrom1 ->
/dev/hdd

So far so good except we need to change it to /dev/scd0 and scd1.

Looks like all we have to do is that and figure out if the other modules
are loaded (would dmesg show us that?) and we are home free.
