Can't help you here, but it reminds me of the good, old days when
installing linux (around 7.0). Immidiately after the boot, the
system asked : do you have any scsi devices ? - Since that question
has disappeared in later versions, I guess the kernels should
recognize scsi devices automatically ? - Or maybe you should try a
contemporary kernel - I think 2.2 is still floating around out
there.
