I recently put an adapted 1520B in my Pentium 200mmx linux box.  I finally
got the kernel to recognize the card, and in /proc/scsi, there is a list of
scsi devices attached (scsi), and a directory for the card (aha152x/).  So
I know the card works, and is recognized at bootup.  But when I try to
mount anything, I get "Kernel doesn't recognize /dev/sdb1 as a valid block
device.  (maybe insmod driver) ".  I've used the MAKEDEV script and made
all of the devices sda-sdg, which by the way only makes 8 partition entries
for each device, and I've also used the mknod command, both of which don't
help me.  I've even upgraded to the latest stable kernel, 2.0.33, which
didn't fix the problem.  Can anybody help me?  Thanks!
