Well, idepci has a lot of modules missing. It includes just the common
IDE/PCI drivers so it's not surprising that you are missing, for
example, SCSI drivers ;-) Just apt-get a generic kernel. Use the
generic 2.4 kernel if you don't mind using some disk space, it
installs most of the modules and works great.

Look in the /boot/config-2.x (where x is your kernel version) file to
see what comes with the specific kernel you installed.
