In /etc/rc.conf
hald_enable="YES"

# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/hald start

IIRC and your disk isn't sccsi you should probably have
  device  atapicam
in your kernel configuration file and build a new kernel. (Might be outdated)

Actually k3b works fine for me without hald.  I find hald a bit too  
enthusiastic for my taste.

I also have the device permissions assigned for non root users in  
devfs.conf.  That may no longer be necessary and I normally burn as  
root on my laptop even though it isn't recommended.

Hope this helps get you started.
