Thanks to several who pointed out where I could find the od driver
for optical disks.  But even after patching my 2.1 kernel source with the
od-driver.diff file, my drive still isn't recognized.  It comes up as uk0
(unknown SCSI device).  Is there anything else I have to do?

Specifics:

Quantum 1080 @ SCSI ID 0
Fujitsu 230MB MO drive @ SCSI ID 3
Asus SC-200 SCSI card
Asus motherboard with P90, 32MB RAM
2.1R kernel

Suggestions welcome.
