I also have a computer with a CD-ROM (hdb) and a CD-R/RW (hdd), just like yours. I did a clean 7.3 install on it (a hard drive with 7.2 on it went bust, so I got a new one), didn't use any boot options, didn't muck around with modules, everything, including CD writer worked out of the box, with kernels 2.4.18-3 and 2.4.18-10. It worked just fine with RH7.2, as well.
