Thanks Andy and Rick for all your help I now see light at the end of the
tunnel.
I hope I have provided enough of the correct information for you.
As suggested by Rick I added to /etc/modprobe.conf
alias scsi_hostadapter aacraid
Then did:
mkinitrd -f -v initrd-2.6.22.img 2.6.22
Then as Andy suggested I did:
If you want to see what modules are in the initrd, you can use this plan
mkdir /tmp/initrd
cp /boot/initrd-blah.img /tmp/initrd
cd /tmp/initrd
gunzip -S .img initrd-blah.img
cpio -i <initrd-blah
ls -l lib
I still get the kernel panic even though I now see the aacraid.ko module is
in the initrd
I *believe* this is the correct module.
Here's the panic message and my grub.conf:
