kernel modules

[jbk]

The kernel maintainers have introduced a new way to address 
ide devices via the libata module. From what I can glean 
from the conversations I have encoutered on bugzilla (RH) 
the new driver addresses ide devices as scsi. This has 
created problems for some users myself included. I have an 
atapi tape drive that just doesn't work under that regime. I 
have found that I can manually unload all the scsi modules 
and then I can access the tape drive just fine. But how do I 
keep these scsi modules from reloading  on reboot?
