I looked under /usr/share/doc/cdrecord and found the file titled "README.ATAPI.gz". Looking inside, I found a wealth of info which basically amounts to this: you need to enable ATAPI-SCSI support in the kernel. You may have to add an "append=" line to your lilo config or grub config. You then use -scanbus as an option for cdrecord as was described earlier. You will also need the SCSI Generic device drivers as well. Make sure the /dev/sg* devices are present.
