Pass "hdd=ide-scsi" (substitute the appropriate device name) to the
kernel at boot time (in /etc/grub.conf or /etc/lilo.conf), and if you
don't have any other scsi devices (including usb storage), add these
lines to /etc/modules.conf:
options ide-cd ignore=hdd
alias scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi
If you use usb storage devices, add these lines instead:
options ide-cd ignore=hdd
# scsi discs (includes usb storage)
alias block-major-8 sd_mod
pre-install sd_mod /sbin/modprobe -k usb-storage
post-remove sd_mod /sbin/modprobe -r usb-storage
# scsi cds (includes ide cd-r/w using scsi emulation)
alias block-major-11 sr_mod
pre-install sr_mod /sbin/modprobe -k ide-scsi
post-remove sr_mod /sbin/modprobe -r ide-scsi
This is for a 2.4 kernel.
Cheers,
John

Oooh! I know this one! You attach a couple of carbon brushes and
generate electricity as they spin around. -- Richard P. Grant
