I added the append statement as below (actually hdc and hdd).  But,
apparently, scsi emulation is not figured into the default kernel.
Therefore, the setup on conf.modules didn't work.  cdrecord -scanbus
just barfed.  I'm guessing that the insmod commands have the same
effect as having recompiled the kernel (which I wanted not to do) and
add the modules into the kernel, essentially on a static basis.

Am I correct that this is what is happening?
