This is the first time I've tried it with devfs + linux 2.4.0test1
The no-devfs 2.4.0test1 worked (see below)

It doesn't thought it appears it wants to load something.
I have all my IDE devices as modules (yes, ide-mod.o ide-probe-mod.o
ide-disk.o ide-cd.o and ide-scsi.o). There does seem to be some
operational problems depending on the order of the modules - you need
ide-cd, ide-probe, and ide-scsi in that order.
Actually it seemed to work - I say seemed because as I was trying it
last night, (you get the messages when probing ide-scsi), but I got a
kernel panic. I have modified modules.conf to use ide-scsi for the
scsi controller card but I don't know if that is right or not. I
wasn't getting this far without a bus controller card, but it kpanics.
Normally it simply says scsi: 1 host a lot (for each probe in cdrecord
-scanbus) - it found the CDs this time.
Part of it might still be the IDE driver, but I think the devfs
load-unload is interacting with that in some way.
