If the disk is really being recognized, the driver should print a line to the syslog (which may echo it to the console, depending on settings), which should be informative.


I take it from the /proc/scsi/scsi file that you have no actual scsi hdds. In that case, you may not have the sd (scsi disk) driver loaded or even availble as a module. This had bit me several times when trying to use a usb-storage device.
