Can't use my CDROM

I am having a problem with my cdrom drive in Fedora Core2.  It is a sony
700W dual layer burner.  FC2 installed from it without problem.  Now I
can't find it.  The only place I can see it is in dmesg.

Probing IDE interface ide0...
hda: SONY DVD RW DRU-700A, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
elevator: using anticipatory as default io scheduler
ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14
Probing IDE interface ide1...
Probing IDE interface ide1...
hda: ATAPI 63X DVD-ROM DVD-R CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache, UDMA(33)
Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20
ide-floppy driver 0.99.newide

I is located at hda.  But nothing can see it at hda.  I am trying to get
K3b to use it.  When I try to configure K3b to use device /dev/hda it
says there is no device there.  Cdrecord also does not see it, not does
lsmod. or /proc/scsi/scsi.

I have two SATA drives as storage and the only thing connected to the
ATA connector is this cdrom.

Any ideas?
