home perfect.
Thanks.
But another Question
Must i set the 3w-9xxx in config-2.4.21-27.0.2.EL as block device or not?

Is this required or not and why?

mv initrd-2.4.21-27.0.2.ELsmp.img initrd-2.4.21-27.0.2.ELsmp.img_orig
copy 3w-9xxx.o for your system to
/lib/modules/2.4.21-27.0.2.ELsmp/kernel/drivers/scsi
make sure there is an entry in /etc/modules.conf like this:
alias scsi_hostadapter1 3w-9xxx
The entry: scsi_hostadapter1 in the above may be different....
run mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.4.21-27.0.2.ELsmp.img 2.4.21-27.0.2.Elsmp
Now you have the driver install done try it by rebooting and see if the 9500
is mounted at boot time.
