Indeed, when I built the kernel without the ide-scsi support, the SATA hard
drive did work nevertheless, yet the CD-ROM and the CD-RW stayed under
the pure IDE drivers control.
Unfortunately, though, in this case, despite the docs to the countrary,
I had experienced the same long timeouts during the media check
and errors on the write when trying to record anything on the CDRW,
so I reverted back to the ide-scsi emulation nevertheless.
In any case, I was unable to achieve one of them (the CD-ROM) under
the ATAPI IDE CD driver control, and the other (the CD-RW) under the SCSI
emulation control --- once the ide-scsi was there, the option to ignore the
emulation (via the "options ide-scsi hdc=ignore" line in the modprobe.d tree)
was itself ignored.
Since it all works under 2.6 with the scsi emulation anyway, I don't think
it is worth the bother, i.e., at least for me, this is not a big deal. Of
course, if somebody wants do debug it, I'll be happy to test things here.
And here's the lsmod output:
