I have installed Debian potato on a machine with Adaptec 2100S RAID
controller. I don't know whether 2400a uses the same driver.

It would be rather time-consuming for me to describe exactly the way I've
done it (English isn't my native language).

Shortly: on another machine I have had to compile the kernel with
the dpt_i2o driver included (_not_ as a module). Having this new kernel, I
have replaced a kernel on a installation floppy with the new kernel.
During the installation I have had to do some "manual" changes.

If above description isn't sufficient, write and I'll try to find the
details.

Hope that helps
