I need some help installing a CD writer on a Redhat 8.0 system.

It is a CD-RW brand CDR-6S52 IDE device only a couple of months old and was working in 
a Windows box.  It is installed as the slave on the first IDE cable and shows up as 
/dev/hdb .  There is no SCSI hardware on the system.

I can read information off  CDs so the reader part is OK.

When I run CDroast it says "Failed to scan the SCSI-bus, either no permission to 
access the generic scsi devices or no scsi support enabled in the kernel."

How to I install the generic scsi support in the kernel?

Any help would be appreciated.  I've spent a number of hours on Google and am just 
going around in circles.

Thanks
David
