The 7.1 installer seems to want to add the append to lilo.conf for you, but
as I understand it, RedHat uses modules for ide-scsi and this will get
ignored.
Here's what I do and it appears to work:
Create /etc/rc.modules, make it executable, and put this in it:
modprobe ide-scsi
Modify /etc/modules.conf and add (assuming hda is the CD burner):
options ide-cd ignore=hda
pre-install sg modprobe ide-scsi
pre-install sr_mod modprobe ide-scsi
pre-install ide-scsi modprobe ide-cd
After rebooting, fix /dev/cdrom* links. The CD-RW should now
be /dev/scd0, if you don't have any other scsi cd drives.
I don't think all of this is necessary (I'd think the rc.modules wouldn't be
needed but I had to add it), but it works for me.
Now if I could just figure out how to get max_scsi_luns to work again...
