Not that I've finished installing mine (I can finally read from both drives 
now) but here's some links I found that might be helpful

http://www.aokiconsulting.com/pc/cdwriter.html
http://www.wam.umd.edu/~urgent/howto.html
http://www.linuxgazette.com/issue57/feenberg.html
http://www.linuxgazette.com/issue57/stoddard.html

and the big dog for the group (the CD-Writing HOWTO)

http://www.guug.de/~winni/linux/cdr/html

I'm running RedHat 6.2 (blech, last time I'll do that) and had to recompile 
the kernel to pull out the ide-cd stuff.  You might want to have some 
references handy for that.  For what my simple mind can follow, you'll need 
to use scsi emulation to burn a CD.

Lastly, since I still move my lips when I read Linux documentation, I found 
that an article in the Sep/Oct 2000 issue of Maximum Linux had a brief but 
helpful overview (supplied enough context for further reading).

Subject:	[TCLUG] settings for a CD-RW

It's an internal EIDE unit and I know that I've got to get SCSI emulation
set up to use it. My question is more basic, however. I plan to call this
/dev/cdrw and mount it at /cdrw. What should I put in /etc/fstab so I can
use it? I assume that I can use the CD-RW and not just the CD-R part.
