I use an Adaptec 2940U as well as SCSI emulation to drive a PD-CD.
To the system, it looks like I have 2 SCSI interfaces, each with their own
devices.
$ cat /proc/scsi/scsi

In my case, the restriction is not putting SCSI and SCSI emulation
together, but putting ATAPI CDROM and SCSI emulation CDROM together.
The docs say that if I compile both into the kernel, the ATAPI will win out
over SCSI emulation and will detect the hardware. Haven't tried.
I presume if I put a second CDROM in there, that it will also be detected
by SCSI emulation, but I dunno.
