I'm almost certain that scsi_mod, sg and sd_mod are needed for all these
scsi operations. The libata is needed by my sata_via driver, so may not
be needed on your setup.

BTW. Try doing insmod on modules you suspect are needed. Then if one of
them satisfies a dependency, or depends on another module that is
loaded, the lsmod will show that.

Once you have the modules.dep correct (depmod -a?) and have identified
the chipset module needed (*if* any and it's not already loaded), you
can try adding the "alias scsi_hostadapter ..." line specifying that
chipset module. Then whenever the system tries to use something that
requires scsi_hostadapter, the driver for that chipset will be
automatically loaded.
