I think you require ide-scsi emulation. Try following as root.

/sbin/modprobe ide-scsi

Alternatively, you can pass following kernel parameters while booting.

hdc=ide-scsi

where hdc is your cdrom device.  (It may be different).

If this works, I suggest that you put following in your lilo.conf ( or
something similar in grub) in your RH9 booting section.

append="hdc=ide-scsi"

I have not used RH9 since long and I don't remember if I required scsi
emulation in RH9. Hope this helps.
