<P><EM>&gt; Hi,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Being a newbie, how did you change the modules, I have a similar problem
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; using a HP5 on adaptec card. Do you have to recompile the kernel or what?
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Sorry to be so basic, but I have been reading all the howto's but cannot find
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; the answer.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;

<EM>&gt; Dave.

<P>Get yourself the kernel source and then read linux/Documentation/modules.txt.
<BR>
That will give you a general idea.
<BR>
<P>You also need to read the man pages for modules.conf and modprobe.
<BR>
<P>I changed modules by changing the module name for scsi_hostadapter in my
<BR>
modules.conf file. No need to re-compile the kernel *if* you've already got the
<BR>
necessary driver compiled as a module.
<BR>
<P>Then I checked what modules where already loaded using lsmod, did rmmod on my
<BR>
old scsi driver module (rmmod aic7xxx), and then did modprobe scsi_hostadapter
<BR>
which causes the aic7xxx_old module to be loaded (because there's an alias line
<BR>
in my modules.conf which performs the association and another line which sets
<BR>
the module options.)
<BR>
<P>Ben.
