Configuring an IDE CD Burner


Ok, I've been running Debian, and each day I've been getting one issue resolved and now the only major issue I am facing with it is my CD Burner. It's an IDE drive, and I have no problem mounting it (it is located at /dev/hdb). I assumed a simple cdrecord -scanbus would give me the correct information I need to burn stuff, but apparently I was wrong.

I went back and enabled SCSI emulation, but I still can seem to get cdrecord to "see" it. This is probably a simple issue, but any insight and/or links would be apperciated on how to get this durn thing workin!

Thanks anyway... I've kind of gotten it figured out now after locating a few docs on it.
