CD-R help - a possible clue?

With my current configuration, I get the following lines in my dmesg output:

scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices
scsi : 1 host.    

I do not have any scsi* devices listed in /dev , but I do have scd* listed.
Should I create a scsi0 device? Would that be what it's looking for?

thanks
