some ide-scsi commands starve drives on the same cable

[(no name)]

Hello,

during some activities (e.g. erasing a CDRW or fixating a CDR on my 
CD-Burner) the hard disc on the same cable cannot be accessed.All data and 
swap partitions are inaccessable. There is no dmesg output, just entering the
mount point fails.

Other activities (like burning the track) does not cause this problem.
I use Cdrecord 1.11a13.

The problem occurs with 2.4.18 and 2.4.19pre3, that means with the new and 
old ide-driver.

I have not included ATA-CD-Support in the kernel and instead compiled 
ide-scsi as a module to use all my CD-drives with cdrecord. (see config below)

I am not sure if it is a kernel problem or if it is a firmware-bug.
Any idea? 

Thank you.

Christian
