Hi,
I have a dual Xion 2.4 with 2Gb of RAM  SuperMicro 6023P-8 system . It
came with Adaptec 320 SCSI card AIC79XX which I'm having trouble with.
I've installed RedHat 8.0 with no problems, I had to supply the driver
for the SCSI card separately though.
After I updated the kernel (kernel-smp-2.4.20-28.8.i686.rpm) , system
wouldn't boot from the new kernel. (See the message below). It's
coming up no problem with the old kernel 2.4.18-14smp.

I also tried to install aic79xx-2.0.2-rh80.i686.rpm supplied by Adaptec,
it produced the following message: "***PROBLEM*** No prebuilt module for
2.4.20-28.8smp i686"

Please explain how to make the new kernel work with the SCSI card.
I couldn't find any good references on how to do it.
Thanks in advance.
Vlad
