/etc/modules.conf is generated from files in /etc/modutils, so make
any changes related to modules.conf there and run update-modules.
I had made a file named /etc/modutils/scsi which contains:
pre-install sg /sbin/modprobe -k sym53c8xx
pre-install sr_mod /sbin/modprobe -k sym53c8xx
pre-install st /sbin/modprobe -k sym53c8xx
...which are for scanner, cd-rw and streamer. Replace sym53c8xx with
advansys and it should work fine. Might be you would need the first
line - the scsi-generic-module - if you grab cd-audio. You defently
don't need the last line if you haven't a scsi streamer connectet to
your advansys host adapter.
