You *definitely* need to make sure you have the initrd
installed in /boot. Also, you *may* need to compile the
SCSI drivers into the kernel. There are various "camps" on
this issue. Better safe than sorry is my motto.
Further, you should NEVER remove your old kernel when
upgrading. Just add the new kernel along side the old one,
so that if you screw up, you still have a bootable system.
