I am going to install the latest snapshot on a Pentium equipped with an AHA-2940 controller. Did the boot floppies have the correct driver on them or did you have to compile your own kernel and floppy image? I found the appropriate source code in the 950322 kernsrc distribution, but nothing about how to incorporate the aic7xxx driver into a working kernel. Any help would be appreciated.
