Nick,
Is the CD-R drive and IDE or a SCSI?
If its IDE, most likely you'll have to do a kernel recompile before
it'll work.
Find out what you have to do by reading the howto:
http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/CD-Writing-HOWTO.html
I don't have any experience with SCSI drives (mine is IDE), but the
howto should explain all.
If you have any questions, ask away.
