Not with the later 2.4.x kernels. I still use mine with scsi and it's great. You just need something in lilo or grub to inform the kernel, then enable scsi-sg (Generic SCSI module) support. Grub: kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-1-686 root=/dev/hda9 ro hdc=scsi vga=1 acpi=off lilo: apppend "hdc=scsi" -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
