OK, that explains it then.

Try the megaraid2 module first - kudzu sometimes detects and installs  
the wrong driver -> it scans the PCI bus and sees LSI - so tries the  
megaraid standard driver. This only works for well old controllers.

rmmod megaraid
modprobe megaraid2

cat /proc/scsci/scsi
Do you see the LUN's correctly?

If that works then simply edit modprobe.conf and then re-create the initrd :

# mkinitrd -v /boot/initrd-new-`uname -r` `uname -r`
edit grub.conf to indicate the changes then simply boot to the "new" kernel.

Otherwise mail us again and we can take it from there.

Suck em and see.
Conor.
