Hi all, I'm trying to use an old MO drive in Centos5.0. It's connected to an adaptec scsi card. From dmesg, the card seems to be recognized, but it doesn't "create" the sda device from the MO drive. Is there any more steps I must do? From Yahoo search (since it has older archive than google), it seems that Linux should be automatically recognize and setting up the scsi card and the MO drive. So, I'm clueless here. Any pointer is great. Thanks.

Ugh, Sorry for the false alarm. It turns out to be cabling problem. After replacing with another scsi cable, it's recognize right away :)
