You'll need to get the latest kernel 2.2.2.  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.
