It does, I use several. Make sure you have an append statement in your
lilo.conf like so:
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.2-2
label=linux
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.2-2.img
read-only
root=/dev/hda3
append="hdc=ide-scsi"
This assumes that your burner is at /dev/hdc, and makes it respond as
/dev/scd0 or /dev/sr0, further assuming you have no native scsi cdroms.
Once you boot you can check that it is working by issuing the command:
# cdrecord -scanbus

Using this information, plus the fact my burner and media are capable
of 12X writes, the command I use to burn an iso is:
# cdrecord -v --eject dev=0,0,0 speed=12 seawolf-i386-disk1.iso
