no bootloader found, Cannot configure kernel

[bruce woller]

FWIW:

The AIC7xxx drivers are for Adaptec SCSI cards.  I have two (2906 and 
2940) in my machine  (G3 B&W) that both work fine  under YDL3.0.  YDL 
2.4 had these modules compiled into the kernel but YDL 3.0 has them as 
loadable modules.  mkinitrd is the program that creates the .img file 
that describes the loadable modules and the external symbols they 
require to link.  The aic7xxx.o should be in the modules directory that 
has the same base name as the kernel.
