Yeah, I actually do this. My base hard drives are normal IDE and my CD burner is IDE-scsi so I use the loadable SCSI support for it and my internal zipdrive. Actually right now, I don't have ide-scsi in the loop at all and my CD Burner and zip drive are accessible. The CD-Writing-HOWTOO has a section on both implementing ide-scsi as a kernel parameter and as separate modules. The modules.conf entries suggested for the proper loading sequence does look a bit complex at best, however.

I'm quite sure you could know something I don't, but I have only ever seen ide-scsi started from the > boot loader. I have never seen it in modules.conf, for example.
