I insist that you can get the expected result _if_ you
type _exactly_ the _right_ line in the boot promp line
and according to this document:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/gregkh/lkn/lkn_pdf/ch09.pdf

what you have to writte is a litle modification of
what you type in the modprobe.conf file
maybe something like:
scsi_mod.max_luns=256
scsi_mod.scsi_dev_flags=INLINE:TF200:0x242



man, you have to test it, try and error approach maybe
