Having recently seen that error....


What it indicated to me was that I had picked the wrong scsi driver
to compile into the kernel.  As for the set up programs, some scsi cards
have a code on boot like CTRL-A, check the card docs (or watch the 
screen).

And make sure the SCSI card sees the drive!  Watch that boot message!
