I've tried and it didn't help.
Here is what lsmod give me:

Module                  Size  Used by
ide_cs                  3424   0  (unused)
ide-cd                 23252   0
cdrom                  14008   0  [ide-cd]
3c575_cb               19224   2
cb_enabler              2472   2  [3c575_cb]
ds                      6344   2  [ide_cs cb_enabler]
i82365                 21892   2
pcmcia_core            41792   0  [ide_cs cb_enabler ds i82365]

but mount returns 'mount: the kernel does not recognize /dev/hdc as a
block device'.

Any suggestions?

Have a nice weekend.
