Xcdroast only "sees" SCSI devices.  You ahve to configure your CDROM 
device to use ide-scsi.  Your kernel obviously has ide-scsi built in 
or as a module.

Get the name of the CDROM device

# ls -l /dev/cdrom
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root  3 Apr 15  2001 /dev/cdrom -> hdb

In grub.conf duplicate your current working config with a new title.  
Call it somethng useful.  Find the line in the duplicate config that 
looks like:

kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-17.8.0 ro root=LABEL=/ hdd=ide-scsi

add hdb=ide-scsi  to the end of the line.

Be sure to use the correct hdx entries for you system.

Reboot and select the new config.  If something goes wrong you can go 
back to the old one.
