Well, read the manual.
Anyway, cdrecord cannot read ide drives only scsi. fortunately linux has
a way of making an ide drive look like a scsi drive
Put the phrase
hdc=ide-scsi
into /etc/lilo.conf on the append= "....." line.
Then run
lilo
and reboot.
This will make the ide drive (I assume your cdrw is on /dev/hdc) look
like a scsi drive (probably /dev/scd0)
Run cdrecord -scanbus
to see the drive.
