First, is it ATAPI? If so you may want to try these changes in your kernel
configuration:
Under Block Devices:
1) turning off IDE/ATAPI CDROM support
2) enable SCSI emulation support
Under SCSI support
1) enable SCSI CD-ROM support
2) enable SCSI generic support
Then recompile and install the new kernel. I had the same problem
although my cdrom is internal, I read somewhere that if your kernel sees
an ATAPI cdrom it will load it first and disregard SCSI support. Also
make sure you have the line:
append = "hd?=ide-scsi"
in your lilo.conf file . Obviously replace the ? with the logical drive.
Hope this helps
