No Boot fresh YDL3 install (SCSI Support)

No SCSI Support built into the kernel?  I find that hard to believe.

I have a SCSI Jaz Drive hooked up to my 6360 w/ YDL 3.0 and it works fine.

Maybe it's just lacking the SCSI driver for your particular card?

I was going to try installing YDL 3.0 on a 7600 (w/ SCSI hard drives),
but is this going to be a problem?
