I dont recall the status of /etc/modules in newer kernels and Debian, but with the 2.2 series (and possibly later) /etc/modules can be configured to specify what modules should be loaded at start. You may want to examine this file. Modules just need to be specified by name, one per line for loading on boot. You may want to see if your system includes an /etc/modules text file and then add: aix7xxx to one line by itself, reboot and see if it is auto-loaded. > Thanks to all who responded and to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for > supplying the SCSI Card and drive.
