As root, try a  'cdrecord --scanbus'  and see if it finds your drive. If 
you added the drive after you installed FC1, you will need to add 
'hdX=ide-scsi' to your kernel line in /etc/grub.conf (replace the X with 
the letter of your drive). My burner is an IDE secondary slave (hdd), 
and my kernel line looks like this:

    kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2140.nptl ro root=LABEL=/ hdd=ide-scsi rhgb
