What I meant is: is it possible to use ide driver and scsi emulation (on
different ide devices of course) under 2.0.x kernel? I have two cdroms
both atapi. And I have read that it is possible to access them as scsi
devices using ide-scsi emulation. However, when I do that, only one cdrom
is detected. So I thought, I'd run scsi emulation on one of them and
regular ide on the other. However, I do not see such kind of support under
2.0.x. Maybe it is impossible...?

PS What is PD-CD drive?
