No, Brian has several SCSI cards. Is there a way of making modprobe handle
this, or do you have to resort to a solution like Brian has in S99local. Me,
I'm a believer in including SCSI drivers in the kernel, but I'm just curious
if there's a neat way of doing this with modules (and modprobe in a start
script doesn't count as neat)



Regards,



Niall
