I'm not sure, but I think the kernel on your boot diskette must be
compiled with "awareness" of the aacraid module.
Why don't you just compile a new kernel with aacraid included and put
this on your boot diskette? I haven't done this for a long time, but I
it shouln't be much harder than overwrite the old kernel with the new
and running some script (rdev or similar) on the diskette.
(If you are trying to install the system on a Dell PowerEdge there
exista premade diskette-images.)
