That's OK as the driver did not get loaded yet.

So, the aha152x driver is not in the kernel you boot.=20

But: Your root fs is on another Controller (IDE?), so you don't need to have
it in the kernel, but the module approach is fine.
put alias scsi_hostadapter aha152x in conf.modules and the module should
get _autoloaded_ when sb. tries to access the SCSI devices.

If you don't like modules, install a kernel with aha152x support from the C=
D.

It should remove the need to specify the params on the commandline, when
using modprobe. Keep it, otherwise the autoload won't succeed.

PS: If you got more problems like this: Please email privately to me, as
 this is no linux scsi driver problem.
