What issue?  I have an IDE burner at home.  I just load my modules and
it's good to go.  Just for the sake of knowing though here's my setup:

In my lilo.conf I have this:
append="hdc=ide-scsi"

I don't remember when I put it in or if it's needed or not but it 
doesn't hurt anything.

Then I use a shell script to do the actual burn:
---------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash

modprobe cdrom
modprobe ide-scsi
modprobe ide-cd
modprobe sg 
DEV=`cdrecord -scanbus 2> /dev/null | grep SONY | awk {'print $1 '}`
#cdrecord --speed=8 -v dev=2,0,0 -eject -overburn $1
cdrecord --speed=24 -v dev=$DEV -eject $1
rmmod sg
rmmod ide-cd
rmmod ide-scsi
rmmod cdrom
---------------------------------------

I use a similar script for burning .bin/.cue files but the line is:

cdrdao write --speed 24 --device $DEV --driver generic-mmc --eject --overburn $1

Works like a charm.
