Once I issued modprobe ide-scsi, it does show up.  It did not before.  I
honestly thought support was compiled into my kernel.  Obviously, it's a
loadable module.  I need to add that modprobe line to startup.

I also changed the config file for devfs.  The device is now identified
as cdrw rather than scd0...no problem.  fstab changed to reflect it.

I think it's all going to work.

I'll post an update.

Thanks for your help,
Terry
