Thanks for your reply Stephen.
I have realized that I put hdb on lilo.conf and hdc on modules.conf, but
I think that hdb is the right dev because it appears on /var/log/messages:
Jun 21 18:35:44 qmailserver kernel: ide_setup: hdb=ide-scsi
Jun 21 18:35:49 qmailserver kernel: ide0: BM-DMA at 0x1840-0x1847, BIOS
settings: hda:pio, hdb:pio
Jun 21 18:35:49 qmailserver kernel: hdb: Hewlett-Packard CD-Writer Plus
9100b, ATAPI CDROM drive
But then the result is the same. The alias on modules.conf is referred
to a disk megaraid. Could be this hardware part of the problem?
Best regards.
