K3b is able to copy CDs via cdrdao or readcd/cdrecord. cdrdao does not support 
ATAPI devices natively so you must enable scsi emulation on your device to 
use it. 

Since you are not using scsi-emulation K3b warns you about not being able to 
use cdrdao at all, but it shouldn't be any problem because you can still copy 
CDs via readcd/cdrecord.

You must have the "hdc=ide-scsi" part on the same line with "kernel...".

You could enable scsi-emulation on your device if for some reason copying cds 
with cdrecord does not work.
