  I report current status.

  I tried to check another MO drive (Logitec LMO-640 (FUJITSU
M2513A)), but the MO drive causes SCSI timeout and bus reset loop at
boot time. So I can not check it yet.

messages is:

sym53c875-0-<4,*>: FAST-20 SCSI 20.0MB/s (50 ns, offset 10)
scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid 23, scsi0, channel 0, id 4, lun 0 Test Unit Ready 00 00 00 00 00
sym53c8xx_abort: pid-23 serial-number=38 serial_number_at_timeout=38
SCSI host 0 abort (pid 23) timed out - resetting
SCSI bus is being reset for host 0 channel 0.
...

  But the same drive can be used with 2.0.35 kernel (+ Tekram
patch). Media change is also detected. Unmount, change disk and mount,
then contents of new disk was shown.

Feb 25 00:42:25 celio kernel: Disc change detected.
Feb 25 00:42:25 celio kernel: SCSI device sda: hdwr sector= 512 bytes. Sectors= 446325 [217 MB] [0.2 GB]
Feb 25 00:42:25 celio kernel: sda: Write Protect is on
Feb 25 00:42:25 celio kernel:  sda: sda1
Feb 25 00:43:03 celio kernel: Disc change detected.
Feb 25 00:43:03 celio kernel: SCSI device sda: hdwr sector= 512 bytes. Sectors= 446325 [217 MB] [0.2 GB]
Feb 25 00:43:03 celio kernel: sda: Write Protect is on
Feb 25 00:43:03 celio kernel:  sda: unknown partition table

  Therefore, 
                2.0.35  2.2.14
Pinnacle drive    NG      NG
Logitec drive     OK    NG(can't boot)
