Sitting here minding my own business and just trying to print to my 
All-in-One HP 3150 from my Fedora Core 7 Pentium 4 system, I hear a 
mournful beep from the printer and my system shuts down.  Now when I 
boot it up, it does not find the PATA drive, again.  Just like the last 
kernel problem.  Googling just gives me the run around.  I fixed it last 
tim by back reving the kernel.  I guess I can do that again, but this is 
getting to be PITA.

Here's a uname -a:
Linux system.com 2.6.23.8-34.fc7 #1 SMP Thu Nov 22 23:05:33 EST 2007 
i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux


What kernel module(s) do I need to load to get the sdb devices created 
from the PATA drive?  I already have a scsi drive and thus have the scsi 
modules loaded.  Here's my lsmod listing:
