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"
