Not exactly a direct answer to your question, but I have my SyQuest EZ230 set
up so that the modules are autoloaded when I access the drive. That way, I
don't have to have it turned on all the time.
I've got the following in my /etc/modules.conf:
alias block-major-45 syquest
probeall syquest paride epat pd
options pd drive0=0x378,,,5,,1,0
The 'options' line just sets the port address and IRQ, and sets the port delay
to 0 which speeds up the drive.
You'll need to run 'depmod -ae' after modifying your modules.conf otherwise
you'll get the message you reported about a file not being as current as
modules.conf.
