Hello everybody!

I have a question about modules, kmod, and everything.  I have a SCSI
adapter for my zip drive and scanner, and an IDE CD Writer which uses
IDE-SCSI emulation with the ide-scsi module.  My problem is this: I have
"hdb=ide-scsi" in my kernel arguments string in LILO, and I have:
"alias scsi_hostadapter aha152x" in my modules.conf, but both modules
don't load because the ide-scsi faux adapter is loaded first, and
because a scsi adapter exists when the kernel tries to load the default
scsi kernel module (scsi_hostadapter) it doesn't load it (IE if there
exists a scsi adapter already, the kernel doesn't try to load
scsi_hostadapter).

My question is: what do I add to modules.conf or other files to make
both load at boot time, or perhaps just have the zipdrive/scanner
adapter load when the device files are accessed?  I'm using RedHat 7.1
XFS which doesn't use devfs by the way.  I thought about mailing the
linux-xfs list about this, but figured that It's more a linux question
than an XFS question, and there are more people on this list :)

Since the XFS installer doesn't use devfs (and I really don't want to
use devfs, I had other problems with it), it should be similar to how
one would do such a thing on a non-devfsd distro.
