Lucas,

I BELIEVE that the master device on your secondary IDE controller would be
/dev/hdc and the slave device on your secondary IDE controller would be
/dev/hdd.  Run dmesg to confirm this.  When I boot my machine, I get a
couple lines in the boot messages RE: my CD-ROM and a couple lines RE: my
CD-RW.  One of the lines for each device tells you what /dev/hd? entry is
used for each one.  If you are using the SCSI device driver for your CD-RW,
you'll want to use the SCSI /dev entry instead of /dev/hdc or /dev/hdd.  My
Iomega ZipCD 650 IDE CD-RW (/dev/hdd) is accessed by cdrdao and cdrecord
with /dev/sr0-- again look in dmesg to confirm.
