Glad to have helped. Editing the /etc/modules.conf is what kernelcfg
really does, but graphically presented.
I doubt if the kernel upgrade had anything to do with your original
problem, as I still run a 2.2.19 and RH7.0.
During the install process, the Adaptec 154x just really doesn't
like getting 'probed', so the base address and irq, dma setting mostly
need to be added as options.
Give yourself guru points...........
