	I suspect that absence from the the "install table" means
the module was not found by lsmod(8).

	Though not a complete answer, the following may help.

	o What is the chipset for the Initio PCI SCSI-Controller?
	o Did you select the correct SCSI chipset support in your
		configuration (make xconfig) when you built linux?
	o Did you select PCI support when you built linux?
	o Did you select SCSI hard disk support when you built linux?
	o Did you run "make modules" when you built linux?
	o Did you run "depmod -a" to update the kernel module table?
	o Do you have kerneld installed and running?
	o Do you have insmod <each of the above modules> run during
		your boot sequence (see /etc/rc.d/*)?

Hopefully helpful,

Bob
