Then depending on how you you are using the scsi card it may have to be in the initrd file. Did you change that file after the changes in the /etc/modules.conf. That certainly needs to be done if any booting is dome from the scsi disk but I have found that it is a goof idea in any case. Of course you could put the modprobe in the rc.sysinit file but I would assume it is already there. -- ------------------------------------------- Aaron Konstam Computer Science Trinity University 715 Stadium Dr. San Antonio, TX 78212-7200 telephone: (210)-999-7484 email:akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxx -- Shrike-list mailing list Shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/shrike-list
