It's probably being listed as an SCSI device because Mandrake has likely configured it using SCSI-emulation as is necessary to use the burner.

As far as not being able to access the burner...not sure about that one.

Try this (http://linux.nf/stepbystep.htm) url under CD Burners and Multiple Drives. May help.

Keep in mind that it is for Caldera and specifies loading a 3rd module for SCSI emulation. Do not use the 3rd module for your distro. The rest should help.
