Thanks a lot - I am sure this is what it was - although there was no error 
messages.  However, I added ide-scsi to /etc/modules so it is loaded almost 
straight away.  Now /proc/scsi/scsi lists all my devices

alan@kanger:~$ more /proc/scsi/scsi

Whereas before only the first and last were included.  More importantly, I can 
sit down and watch my LOTR dvd:-)
