Sorry, maybe I did not give enough information.
I have the drivers from adaptecs site (plus the kmod stuff).
At least once I need to boot the rescue disk to select the
bootpartition and install grub on the new drives, I need to insmod
the drivers, but I do not know where and how to do that during
the boot process of the rescue disk (there is no menu for that).
I have never had to do this before ... in all the years of using Linux ;-)
