I may be wrong here but I think the append="hdd=ide-scsi" is a LILO thing.
I think that your kernel line should look like this:

   kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-3 ro root=/dev/hde2 hdd=ide-scsi

I am not very proficient in Linux yet and Gentoo is my flavor of preference
atm. Also, I have no experience with cdrecord so somebody else will probably
be able to help much better than I can.
