Hi Yancey,

Thanks for your effort.  Problem still remains unsolved.

Both /etc/grub.conf  and  /boot/grub/menu.1st  now look as follow;

....
.....
#boot=/dev/hde
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Red Hat Linux (2.4.18-3)
    root (hd0,0)
    kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-3 ro root=/dev/hde2 hdd=ide-scsi
    initrd /initrd-2.4.18-3.img

# cdrecord --scanbus
Cdrecord 1.10 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2001 Jörg Schilling
cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open SCSI driver.
cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. Make sure you 
are root.
