After reading through the SCSI-2.4-HOWTO, I've learned that adding sg and sr_mod to /etc/modules.conf is unnecessary. The reason for this is the ide-scsi module is dependent upon sr_mod module - and executing 'modprobe ide-scsi' will cause modprobe to discover that sr_mod needs to be loaded before ide-scsi can be loaded - so that is what modprobe will do. I've tried the following: modprobe -v -n ide-scsi which tells me that it is going to first load sr_mod then ide-scsi. So I manually execute: 'insmod sr_mod' which succeeds 'insmod ide-scsi' locks up the system after reporting the "scsi: aborting command due to timeout" message. I think that the 3Ware controller is causing modprobe to lockup my system while trying to load the ide-scsi module. I'll disconnect the 3Ware controller and reinstall on just one of the drives connected to IDE0 on the mobo and see if I can get ide-scsi working.
