I was also experencing the same kind of problem
when i installed RH7.2
you have to link the /dev/cdrom file to /dev/hdb or
/dev/hdc(might even be /dev/hdc1 or hdc2) depending on how many
cdroms you might have.
To do this you have to edit a file called
/etc/fstab
In the fstab file the line for cd-rom should look
like this
/dev/hdb /mnt/cdrom iso9660
owner,exec,dev,suid,ro,noauto,kudzu 0 0
(of course the device Id iso9660 is specific
to my drive which is a samsung 52x,this will be automatically detected in your
system)
and after doing this run kudzu once and most
probably some devices may be deteced as removed from the system and after that
the cd drive should be running fine)

My cdroms are ide drives one a slave to the hard drive and one is with
a superdisk They are seen as scsi drives. can't mount them can eject the
trays. Was able to install rh 7.2 but thats it. I also tried sndconfig for
sound the right driver wasn't there but was able to get the driver on
the desk top. Can find the other driver to put it in the same
folder.
