I am curious about this...

Is there any downside to ide-scsi??

if not why not make it the default for all CD/DVD based drivers...

you didn't say if you were passing scsi emulation for that drive to
the kernel at boot time.  If you haven't, you may need too in order
to cp from it.  add:  hdc=ide-scsi  (whichever device your cdrom
drive is) in the append line and run lilo and see.

Thanks, I knew I'd forgotten something simple. Works perfectly now.
