Hi!

   I have a new server with a PCI raid controller, a Symbios 53c416, with
4 hard disks attaeched. Also, this server have an embedded aic7xxx scsi
controller with a dat tape attached to it.

   I need to restore the system from a DDS tape, so I made a custom boot
disk with scsi-disk and scsi-tape support copiled into the kernel. Of course,
aic7xxx and sym53c416 compiled into the kernel too. I already have a working
root disk.

   When I boot with my custom boot disk, just the hard disk are detected.
Nothing happend with tape support. Also, I try scsihosts kernel option without
luck.

   Do I need to pass some special kernel parameters at boot time ?
   How can I enable all scsi controllers at boot time ?

   Any ideas will be very appreciated.

   Thank you very much!

Rodrigo..
