Nope.
Doesn't look that way... I had to have that particular line, or "modprobe ide-scsi" had no effect. Also, since you seem to "Know Stuff(TM)", is there a way to achieve the effect of this line w/o rebooting? If no way, why?
I don't happen to know this particular stuff very well, because I make a point of not needing to know it. (I prefer SCSI, especially for CDRs.) But, if I wanted to look it up, I'd do so in the [link|http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/CD-Writing-HOWTO.html|CD Writing HOWTO].
I suspect you'll have to reboot because they kernel has already enumerated valid devices at boot time, and you can't convince it to un-enumerate them.
