Alan,
Assuming L-M 7.1 and the new burner is an ATAPI IDE device, as root
you must set up hd?=ide-scsi in your lilo.conf stanza (then run lilo)
as well as place
modprobe ide-scsi
modprobe sg
at the end of your /etc/rc.d/rc.local.
After reboot from scratch, you can then access the cd-reader part as
/dev/sr0, and cdrecord -scanbus should find your cd-writer part.
