Not specially, but cdrecord needs a SCSI device. So you need to tell your
kernel to load hdb as a pseudo-scsi device by adding:
hdb=ide-scsi
to the boot arguments. Then "cdrecord -scanbus" will show another scsi
bus with IDE devices on it. For example, my home machine has this grub
clause in the file /boot/grub/grub.conf:
title Linux 2.4.18
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18 ro root=/dev/hda1 hdc=ide-scsi mem=nopentium
The important bit there is the "hdc=ide-scsi" which presents my IDE
burner as SCSI, so "cdrecord -scanbus" says:
scsibus0:
0,0,0 0) ' ' 'DRW4624 ' '1.60' Removable CD-ROM
0,1,0 1) *
0,2,0 2) *
0,3,0 3) *
0,4,0 4) *
0,5,0 5) *
0,6,0 6) *
0,7,0 7) *
(I have no SCSI devices in this machine.) So I pass the argument
"device=0,0,0" to cdrecord. If you're using my mkcd script just the the
environment variable $MKCDDEV, like so:
export MKCDDEV=0,0,0
Of course, adjust to suit your cdrecord scanbus report.

You see: Mr. Drogo, he married poor Miss Primula Brandybuck. She was our Mr.
Bilbo's first cousin on the mother's side (her mother being the youngest of
the Old Took's daughters); and Mr. Drogo was his second cousin. So Mr. Frodo
is his first *and* second cousin, once removed either way, as the saying is,
if you follow me. - the Gaffer, _Lord_of_the_Rings_
