Yes, I did:

$ grep '^[^#]' /boot/config-2.2.18 | grep -i scsi
CONFIG_SCSI=y
CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y
CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS=y
CONFIG_SCSI_AM53C974=y

$ grep '^[^#]' /boot/config-2.4.0 | grep -i scsi
CONFIG_SCSI=y
CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y
CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS=y
CONFIG_SCSI_AM53C974=y

It *is* strange, indeed.

Still seeking help!

Cheers,
Sven
