Hmm, what release do you use, it seems like w need to add sd[a-][0-] |
| 17 |
devices. |

You can use mknod to create the missing ones manually. You should copy the |
| 19 |
kernel from the bootdisk (/dev/ram0) |
| 20 |
to your systems /boot/boot/bzImage (backup the old one) because |
| 21 |
scsi-support is only availabe in modules and we |
| 22 |
have no initrd that preloads modules. |
