I tried editing /etc/modules.conf manually (as also suggested by Dark Lord - many thanks), adding the following lines probeall scsi_hostadapter aha152x alias scsi1 aha152x (but without any parameters - I don't know where they would come or whether it matters. Does it?) and also /etc/modules adding another line scsi_hostadapter (and also tried variations on this - scsi_hostadapter1, etc.) then depmod -a. Didn't do a thing :-((. If I put the "probeall scsi_hostadapter aha152x alias scsi1 aha152x" in modules.conf *ahead* of "probeall scsi_hostadapter usb-storage ide-scsi probeall usb-interface usb-uhci" on re-booting I found the "...aha152x.." had been overwritten by "usb-storage..." What do you suggest? TIA DougB
