Thanks, this is what I needed.

I have:

advansys               86444   0 (unused)
sd_mod                 11572   0 (unused)
scsi_mod               91804   2 [advansys sd_mod]

So it looks like sg isn't being loaded.  So I did a 'modprobe sg', and
this created the generic file, and made the link, and now everything
is working fine.

Thanks, again.
