After several seconds of silence, lots of these appeared:
 devfs_dealloc_unique_number(): number 128 was already free
 devfs_dealloc_unique_number(): number 128 was already free


By the way, that scsi_debug_many_disks.tgz tarball contains:
  drivers/scsi/scsi_debug.h
  drivers/scsi/scsi_debug.c
This driver is valid for any kernel in the lk 2.4 series.
If the tarball is unzipped in /usr/src/linux it would 
replace the originals (which is no great loss but you 
may like to keep copies of them).
Also my .config contains: CONFIG_SCSI_DEBUG=m
(for GUI users it is the last SCSI adapter listed).
