Hello,
The kernel version is 2.2.19, and the command 'cat /proc/partitions' is
nothing:

# cat /proc/partitions
major    minor    #blocks    name

#

And the part of dmesg concerning scsi is the following:

...
fd0 : SWIM3 floppy controller
md driver 0.36.6 MAX_MD_DEV=4, MAX_REAL=8
scsi0 : MESH
scsi1 : 53C94
scsi : 2 hosts
mesh : target aborted
mesh : target 3 synchronous at 50 Mb/s
    vendor : MATSHITA Model : CD-ROM ...
    Type : CD-ROM ...
Detected scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi 0, channel 0, id 3, lun 0
scsi : detected 1 SCSI generic 1 SCSI cdrom total
Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision : 3.11
...

Best regards,
