I found this worked on my mandrake
6.0.
1) log in as root
2) open thr file /etc/conf.modules in a text
editor I used vi.
add the line alias block-major-8
ppa
3)edit the file /etc/rc.d/rc.local or rc.sysinit
(I used rc.sysinit)
add the line /sbin/modprobe
ppa if you are using 6.0 for earlier versions
use /sbin/insmod ppa
4)Insert a disk and restart linux you should see
the drive get detected in the start up.
5)If you see the drive get reconized then you
can mount the drive like any other linux drive and use it normally.
