check /boot/config-2.4.18 to be sure its there.. for 2.2.19 it would
look like:
CONFIG_BLK_CPQ_DA=y
it may also have(or need instead)
# CONFIG_BLK_CPQ_CISS_DA is not set
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD is not set
(those may be needed to set to Y depending on the kind of
raid controller) in this DL380 it has:
00:01.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic (formerly NCR):
Unknown device 0010 (rev 02)
Subsystem: Compaq Computer Corporation: Unknown device 4040
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 192, IRQ 19
I/O ports at 2000
Memory at c6000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
Memory at c5000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2
keep the old kernel ready in lilo.conf just incase the new one doesn't
work.
