Red Hat never released a 2.4.21 kernel for 7.1.  The last they released
was 2.4.20 and that was in December, 2003.  I don't believe you're
running a Red Hat supplied kernel since I've never seen them deliver a
kernel version 2.4.21 without any other numbers in it.  For that matter,
you've also chosen to cut out most of the rest of the uname -a output.

So you don't know if it has ever worked?

This drive is on the hardware compatibility list for 8.0:

Try this to see if it helps you get anywhere:

You do realize that 7.1 is ancient don't you?
