Joseph:

I did all that, although I used make xconfig as menuconfig doesn't want to
work for me.

I had to do the same for 2.6.8, the relevant lines from the .config file
are

CONFIG_FUSION=y
CONFIG_FUSION_MAX_SGE=40
# CONFIG_FUSION_CTL is not set

It all worked as it should for the 2.6.8 that came with 4.0 but it just
hangs with 2.6.10.

Peter:

You will need to rebuild the 2.6.10 kernel.

To see why:

* Goto the source directory,

      /usr/src/linux-2.6.10-1.ydl.1

* run:

      make menuconfig

* Navigate to Device Drivers -> FUSION MPT device support

You will find that the device driver was not included in the
configuration.
