If you have an IDE CD burner, make sure that you tell the system to install the
'ide-scsi' module. Used to have to put something like 'hdc=ide-scsi' in the
boot arguments. Don't know what you do with Redhat but that's probably it.
This makes the IDE cdrom act like a SCSI device. The system even puts in a new
fake SCSI controller to make things smoother. Then the CD will be called
/dev/sg0.
Try that and let us know what happens...
Cheers!
