2.5.72 or patched 2.5.74:

<4>imm: Version 2.05 (for Linux 2.4.0)
<4>imm: Found device at ID 6, Attempting to use EPP 32 bit
<4>imm: Found device at ID 6, Attempting to use SPP
<4>imm: Communication established at 0x378 with ID 6 using SPP

<5>SCSI device sda: 196608 512-byte hdwr sectors (101 MB)
<5>sda: Write Protect is off

An unpatched 2.5.74 says

<4>IMM: returned SCSI status b8
<4>sda: test WP failed, assume Write Enabled
<3>sda: asking for cache data failed
<5>sda : READ CAPACITY failed.
<4>sda: test WP failed, assume Write Enabled
<3>Buffer I/O error on device sda, logical block 0

and no I/O is possible.
