When using the RedHat-4.2 mkinitrd script, there are two things to
remember. One, passing aic7xxx= options to the lilo prompt doesn't effect
anything. Two, the variable names in the conf.modules file have to be
modified (to properly reflect the actual global variable in use). So,
change the conf.options file above to have the line:
options aic7xxx aic7xxx_ultra=1
and make sure you have the latest mkinitrd package from the RedHat errata
set or else mkinitrd will munge that option line to something unuseable.
