	Hi everybody!! I've been trying to install linux (RedHat 4.2) to a
new server, PC Pentium 133, 32M, SCSI Adaptec 2920 and 2G Quantum.

	The problem is linux can't detect the scsi card ( IO=0x6100 IRQ=9
on /proc/pci, also SCSI storage controller= Future Domain TMC-18C30 ) so
i've been using the fdomain module, and failed. 

	The Questions are:

	1) Can i make a bootdisk ( installation for redhat ) so that i can
modify the scsi.c or fdomain.c module to autodetect my card???

	2) Instead, how can i pass the io and irq to the module with
insmod or when you specify the options in RH install??

	3) Last one, will i be able to install RH to my server or shall i
quit???

	4) Suggestions????


	Thanx.
