Here is my current /etc/modprobe.conf
alias eth0 e100
alias scsi_hostadapter ata_piix
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
options snd-card-0 index=0
install snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-intel8x0 &&
/usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; };
/sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0
alias usb-controller ehci-hcd
alias usb-controller1 uhci-hcd
alias scsi_hostadapter1 fdomain
It looks like that line is already there. Note that it is the second
scsi_hostadapter.
The first one is on the motherboard and controlls an ATA serial drive as
device /dev/sda (I think).
Maybe I should remove the first scsi hostadapter and rename the second to
see if it clears up.

Put the following line in /etc/modprobe.conf :
alias scsi_hostadapter fdomain
That should take care of getting the SCSI controller recognised at boot
time. I don't know if kudzu will then recognise the tape drive or not.
Give it a try. If it doesn't, add "modprobe st" to /etc/rc.d/rc.local.
Paul.
