I have adaptec 39320 controller, The install CD already has aic79xx driver in it. The driver does NOT load for some reason. If I take the same aic79xx driver source, Create an img and install RHEL4 using linux dd, it works fine. Can you please let me know, what files/lookup tables does the OS look into for loading a driver for 2.6? Also can you please point me to steps on to how to replace an existing driver(I suspect the default driver in RHEL4 CD may be wrong) in the RHEL4 install CD with my own aic79xx built driver? with regards, Anil - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
