What else?

Do you think I have scsi built-in? Not at all.

lsmod::
sg 20120 0
sd_mod 12304 0
usb_storage 73408 0
usbcore 108256 5 uhci_hcd,ohci_hcd,ehci_hcd,usb_storage
scsi_mod 103496 3 sg,sd_mod,usb_storage

/proc/config.gz:
CONFIG_SCSI=m
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=m
# CONFIG_CHR_DEV_ST is not set
# CONFIG_CHR_DEV_OSST is not set
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR=m
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR_VENDOR is not set
CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SG=m
CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SCH=m
CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS=y

that's about all.
