To see which libraries you need, run:

ldd sdmotor

on your debin box.  Since you're program's crashing (not generating an error
about a missing library), you probably are linking against the wrong version
of the standard C library.  Are you compiling on Debian 2.1?

Also, you may need to make sure your kerel has the SCSI support modules
loaded...

Do what I do...don't buy Seagate drives ;-)

IIRC, there are some usermode programs to do this sort of thing with SCSI
drives.  I don't remember off-hand what the programs called, but a bit of
searching should turn up something.  You might also take a look at noflushd:
