Try modularizing the IDE CD-ROM support too.  As it is now, I think the
cdrom is being assigned to the IDE device, so it can't also be treated as a
SCSI device.  I'm sure there's a more technically correct way to have put
that - but it's not coming to me right now. :)

Does something like "depmod -a" help?  I like to randomly throw commands at
a problem until it goes away when I don't know what the real problem is.
:)  You might have something in /etc/modules.conf (or conf.modules) that's
telling the system to look in the wrong place for the modules, or for some
other reason be trying to load modules built for a different kernel.
