Driver needed badly Ultra320 AIC-7901


Hello,

I'm having the most difficult time trying to find the precompiled driver for the adaptec ultra320 aic7901 scsi driver. Does anyone know where I can locate it? This is for a linux kernel running 2.6.x

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The hardware uses the aic79xx module.

Need more info like Distro and version?
A system already up or trying to install?

If system is up check /lib/modules/<kernel-version>/kernel/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx and see if aic79xx.ko exist. If so then as root run command ' modprobe aic79xx '
