Hello,
I have an IDE CD Writer (Sony 32x)
When I boot normally, it works ok as hda (I have SCSI hard drives)
Now if I want to burn CDs, I understand I have to enable SCSI emulation in the kernel parameters and boot with hda=ide-scsi as a kernel option.

This allows me to write CDs, but however this doesn't allow me to mount the CD drive and to read any CD (the drive is said to be at /dev/scd0 according to the CD burning software, but "mount /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom -t iso9660" doesn't work, saying this is an invalid device. If I try to mount /dev/hda it says it doesn't work probably because the SCSI emulation is enabled...
Any idea about what I might be doing wrong?

Your cdrom is /dev/scd0, an not hda when under ide-scsi. Just change your fstab, or the /dev/cdrom link. ("ln -sfi /dev/scd0 /dev/cdrom")

[root@sflory tyan]# mount |grep cdrom
/dev/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type iso9660 (ro,nosuid,nodev,user=sflory)
[root@sflory tyan]# ls -l /dev/cdrom
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Nov 26 11:49 /dev/cdrom -> /dev/scd0
[root@sflory tyan]#
