scsi kernel question


I installed slack 9 on my laptop with no problems. I just bought a server and am planning to install slack 9 on it. However, I remembered that when I installed slack 9 the first time, there was only an ide driver provided. Am I going to have issues installing since my server only runs scsi drives. If so, where do I get a precompiled kernel with scsi built in? I looked in the file tree but didn't see any kernel listed except the one.

nevermind, I believe I answered it myself. I had noticed the kernels directory but thought that it was only for bootdisk kernels. But, they are in the bootdisks directory . I believe one of the kernels in the kernels directory will work for me. Thanks.
