Does the redhat kernel have this in automatically? I suppose I only need
the scsi emulation for the burner and leave the CD-ROM and other ide
devices as they are.

have a scsi system, include support for generic scsi as well as scsi
CD-ROMS. You also need to tell lilo to use the idescsi driver on your
CD-ROM burner.  I'd give you the cyntax for that, but I just shut my system
down for the week, so I'll try to remember to e-mail you next Friday.  You
can find a good explanation of all of this in the CD-WRITER hoto.
