If you can’t get at your IDE CD burner because Nautilus keeps loading the ide-cd module try the following trick:
Login as root and enter the following, you might have to repeat the command a few times as Nautilus probes the CDROM on a regular basis.
# /sbin/rmmod ide-cd cdrom ; /sbin/modprobe ide-scsi
Of course, I should just modify my /etc/modules.conf but I CBA!
