I had been under the impression that when ide-scsi took control of an ide device, you were no longer allowed to use it from the ide subsystem (but of course I could be wrong). What happens when you boot without ide-scsi?


hdparm still works on the IDE device (at least the -w switch, I haven't
tried anything other than that).

Hmm. With devfs, you don't get an ide device (it only appears under /dev/scsi/)
