Your best bet is to order a new redhat 5.2 cd from cheapbytes.com for $1.99. This doesn't have the 2.2.2 kernel but it is at 2.0.36 I think. This should provide your scsi support that you need. Of course, somebody else probably will have a more technical idea creating a boot disk with the proper drivers. I expect that you can do it this way, I just don't quite know how off the top of my head. Good luck.
