RE: AIC7xxx drivers Thunder K7x Pro



Turns out.. that my network drivers aren't supported through 30r1 'cause of
.18.. so I'm going to install to IDE.. using my realtek NIC.. grasp all the
drivers.. get my scsi working... and try to make my own install disk.. any
hints on where to find info on making my own kernel to load MY scsi drivers
on the fly... so I can boot directly to my scsi.. and also have a rescue
disk.. if needed?

Let us know if this works. I have read another reference to this topic (suse
list) that uses a aic79xx module,(same mb) which isn't available in Woody
kernel sources.
