I am still having a problem, though I feel "this close" to success.
(Picture a Kids in the Hall scene of someone remotely squeezing a head.)

I followed the FAQ at http://www.systemimager.org/doc/html and with
some hints in response to my previous plea, I think I am "doing what I
am supposed to do" but I get the following error regarding loading
my_modules when the autoinstaller is running on the new client:

        ...
        switch_root_to_tmpfs
         
        mount_dev_on_devfs
        Started device management daemon v1.3.25 for /dev
         
        mount_proc
         
        adjust_arch
         
        ifconfig_loopback
         
        load_my_modules
        insmod: /lib/modules/2.4.20-boel: No such file or directory
        insmod: /lib/modules: No such file or directory
        insmod: aic79xx.o: no module by that name found
         
        read_local_cfg
        ...

The module aic79xx.o is in the initrd_source/my_modules directory and I
can see it in the initrd_source/build_dir sub-directory.  The
INSMOD_COMMANDS file also has as its last statement:

        insmod aic79xx

But the mystery is why does the error complain about

        /lib/modules and the kernel-version sub-dir as not existing?

Is it something I am doing wrong?

More background: systemimager3.0.1, compile host=image server=RH8.0
kernel 2.4.18-27.8.0.  NOTE that I renamed the old driver directory
src/linux-2.4.20/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx and put the latest source for
aic7xxx (which includes support for aic79xx) into that directory.  The
make binaries step did a make config which asked me a few questions
such as did I want 79xx support, I answered 'm' rather than 'N' for
that question but took defaults for everything else.  It successfully
built the aic79xx.o and everything else.  I did the make
install_binaries and the mkautoinstallcd with the flavor option.  The
above error confirms I am getting the right autoinstall image as it
tries to load my_module.

Thanks for any tips.
