All you need to do is us the ATAPI options. specifically add this to your
kernel config file: 

options         ATAPI           #Enable ATAPI support for IDE bus
options         ATAPI_STATIC    #Don't do it as an LKM
device          acd0            #IDE CD-ROM

it doesn't matter who makes the drive as long as it is IDE.
