Atapi CD-RW problem (ide-scsi)

Hello!

I run Fedora 2 on a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo A7620 laptop, and have 
suddenly got myself into trouble that I cannot find a solution to on the 
web.

I was going to burn my first CD with cdrecord on Fedora 2. But that 
didn't work. I had a problem when I used Fedora 1 aswell, but then I 
just followed a how-to in the Red Hat Linux Fedora bible to configure 
the IDE CD-ROM for recording.

Then I got into trouble, because this how-to is for kernel 2.4 and I 
have 2.6.8. I didn't think of this and just tried to follow it step by 
step. The result was that cdrecord does still not work, and now _I'm not 
able to read CDs anymore!_

The things I have done (run) is:

[root at localhost /]# modprobe -a ide-scsi
[root at localhost dev]# rm cdrom
[root at localhost dev]# ln -s scd0 cdrom

How can I revert to the original configuration? So I at least am able to 
read CDs?
