 OK, I followed the instructions from linuxraid.org and
 it seems my kernel is now installed because now it
 doesn't boot.  Error message states that the root fs
 cannot be mounted on 08:03 then it halts.  What did I
 miss now?
 
 Chris

08:03 is /dev/sda3.  Is that what you would expect to be booting off -
the first scsi disc?   Is the scsi controller driver compiled into the
kernel properly?  Do the boot messages show that the scsi controller
was found?
