As Matt says, IDEfix97 could be your friend here. I would try to use FindDevice to locate your CDrom. Once you have the device type and unit number, you can set about making the right driver. I already had this screenshot uploaded, so just brought it here in case it was of help to you. FindDevice found the IDE Zip drive as scsi.device unit 3, so I was then able to edit the driver accordingly to get an icon for the drive.
   

But In your case you will probably be editing an icon called CD0

Just to add that FindDevice won't find devices that need IDEfix97 to be running for them to be seen. You can check that IDEfix97 is installed by looking in the C drawer of your Workbench and checking that a file which is actually called IDEfix is in there. And the top of your Startup-Sequence will probably look something like this:-

; $ver: Startup-Sequence_HardDrive 45.1 (25.11.00)
; Startup-Sequence for hard drive systems

If Exists C:IDEFix
  C:IDEFix
EndIf

C:setpatch QUIET

C:Version >Nil

C:AddBuffers >Nil DF0: 15
 




Good luck! :)
