After that, nothing happens; nothing comes to the terminal, nothing 
appears to be happening in the drive, and everything else runs unaffected.

I'm not seeing any ide-scsi module in the output of lsmod and my kernel 
version is 2.6.17-1.2174_FC5.  Can anyone recommend a package, source or 
binary, somewhere that is likely to work?

Thanks,
