Re: SCSI driver causing kernel crash!

Interesting..

Now I just need to work out how to install the new
driver.  That does make sense actually!

Can I just install an RPM or do I need to compile
something?  The expert install never seems to work
properly (I just have bad experiences with that).

Thanks!
