That said, I ran into another problem. I was able to rescan-scsi-bus
manually. But, when inserted like this:

# Ooh, firewire too.
if ! strstr "$cmdline" nofirewire ; then
   aliases=`/sbin/modprobe -c | awk '/^alias ieee1394-controller/ {
print $3 }'`   if [ -n "$aliases" -a "$aliases" != "off" ]; then
      for alias in $aliases ; do
        [ "$alias" = "off" ] && continue
        action $"Initializing firewire controller ($alias): " modprobe
$alias
      done
      LC_ALL=C fgrep -q "SBP2" /proc/bus/ieee1394/devices 2>/dev/null &&
\
                modprobe sbp2 >/dev/null 2>&1
      /sbin/rescan-scsi-bus
   fi
fi
 
IT will NOT load at boot time.
