Driver problems on Compaq Presario CQ50 with TS-L633L DVDRW drive

I recently purchased the Compaq CQ50 laptop and am trying to install Fedora9 on it. The i386 version of the OS boots up from a DVD, but seems to hang as its loading up the kernel. After a few minutes, the text-based installation screen shows up. However, when prompted for the OS distribution and selecting the "Local CD/DVD", it prompts for a driver. I'm not sure what driver to select even though I know its a TSST Corp's TS-L633L ATA DVDRW drive.

Can anyone suggest how I might get past this? I know I can do the install over NFS, but I'd like to do it using the DVD. Any suggestions on which driver I should choose that will do the trick. TIA.
