An upgrade to 2.6.15 kernel appears to have solved the problem. I decided to try the stock (etch) upgrade before resorting to any initrd tricks. Module ide_scsi is _not_ loaded, and the drives are appearing as hd*, as they did with 2.6.8. The odd misbehaviour has also stopped, see: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=121899 -- Carl Brown Whitefield, NH USA
