After upgrading to RH9, the kernel parameter never was needed, . someone 
mentioned that it was no longer required. I took it out of my grub.conf 
file, then burned a CD. It worked instantly.

Both of my CDROMS (one reader and one burner) have been recognized as 
/dev/scd0 and /dev/scd1 for awhile.

If I added anything that was not due to shrike or phoebe. It might be 
that I upgraded my modutils from kernel.org, under Rusty's directory.

Under xcdroast, I had to identify the correct specs for the burner. By 
default, it was setup as two different possible units. That was before I 
took out the hdd=ide-scsi call to the kernel though.
