I have an RH 5.1 system (running fine) that I want to install MD 6.0
to from CDROM.

I have an EIDE hard disk and a SCSI CDROM drive on a SCSI controller
with an Adaptec AIC-6360 chip.  This is the same guts as on the
Adaptec AHA-1520.

I had to add:
append="aha152x=0x340,11,7"
to /etc/lilo.conf to get RH 5.1 to see the drives on my SCSI bus.
This did (and still does) work just fine; but this is with SCSI
hardware support in the kernel, not a module.

With MD 6.0, I get to the SCSI card selection screen, and probing
for SCSI fails.  When I specify:
0x340,11,7
the install will hang on "scanning SCSI bus..."

The MD 6.0 kernel image does not have SCSI support.  Will I need
to use a non-standard kernel image with rawrite?  If so, which one?
Or am I on the wrong track entirely, and just don't know how to
specify options to the aha152x kernel module?

I *thought* I knew how to do this.  Most frustrating.

Cheers.
