i've found this about the cciss driver in the kernel documents:


Additionally, note that the driver will not engage the SCSI core at init 
time.  The driver must be directed to dynamically engage the SCSI core 
via the /proc filesystem entry which the "block" side of the driver creates 
as /proc/driver/cciss/cciss* at runtime.  This is because at driver init 
time, the SCSI core may not yet be initialized (because the driver is a block 
driver) and attempting to register it with the SCSI core in such a case 
would cause a hang.  This is best done via an initialization script 
(typically in /etc/init.d, but could vary depending on distribution). 
For example:

for x in /proc/driver/cciss/cciss[0-9]*
do
    echo "engage scsi" > $x
done
