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.

You need the updated boot images for RedHat 5.2 to install. You also
need the newest kernel which comes with RedHat 5.2 (2.0.36 - redhat
patched).
I just installed 6 p2b-ds so I know it works.
