Edit your configuration file. If you use LILO, edit /etc/lilo.conf so that under your present boot section you have append = "hd?=ide-scsi" (where the question mark is replaced with the drive designation of the CD-R or CD-RW drive, for example for the common arrangement where it's the secondary master ide device you would have hdc=ide-scsi). If there's already an append line there, just add this to it. Save the lilo.conf you just edited and then type: /sbin/lilo (on a root command line).
