I don't know about on demand.  I had to put "modprobe ide-scsi" in my
friends rc.local to get his to work.

Really?  How did you set up ide-scsi?  It sounds like you turned off
support for ide cdroms and floppies and recomiled your kernel.  That was
way more work than you needed to do :)

Try going back to your original kernel, and add the line
append = "hdc=ide-scsi"
to your /etc/lilo.conf, in the section for the kernel you're booting.
