Red Hat 3 (kernel 1.2.13) does not support the Buslogic card directly.
You will need to use the 1.3.57 kernel on the CD which *does* support the
card. Once installed, you can then go up to the 2.0.x kernel.
An alternative is to compile a kernel for the machine on another machine
and put that onto your boot floppy.
When compiling your own kernel, you need ramdisk support AND UMSDOS
support - the README doesn't mention the latter!
