Linux-2.4.0-t1-ac1 scsi_ide bread errors

I have been having problems with my Hewlett-Packard 8250i
CD-RW drive since 2.2.15. I have it setup as ide-scsi per
the instructions in the "CD-Writing-HOWTO" Attached is a
report on the problem.

System details;
Kernel is 2.4.0-test2-ac1 with number of files initialization patch
Distribution is RedHat 6.2
Using scsi generic on cdrom on ide channel 2 master (would be /dev/hdc as it is on ide1 ) is dev/scd0 on sg.
Shows up at SCSI Address 0,0,0
I can "rmmod ide-scsi" and "rmmod sg" at the point of error but "rmmod cdrom" fails with device busy. The cdrom
driver eventually times out (see log entry Jun 25 21:10:00 above.
System is Abit BP6 with dual Celeron 500's Not OverClocked, buss speed is 66.xx MHz multiplier ratio is locked
 (by celerons ) at 7.5 giving CPU clock at 500 MHz.
