I can not boot up with a stock kernel 2.4.18-10 with this card, I get this
during bootup:

Loading scsi_mod module
SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00
Loading sd_mod module
kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2
Loading aha1542 module
Unable to determine Adaptec DMA priority.  Disabling board
/lib/aha1542.o: init_module:
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including
invalid IO or IRQ parameters
ERROR: /bin/insmod exited abnormally!


    However, if I recompile the kernel and just enable the AHA-1542 built into
the kernel (as opposed to a module), it comes up just fine:

Configuring Adaptec (SCSI-ID 7) at IO:330, IRQ 10, DMA priority 7
aha1542.c: Using extended bios translation
scsi0 : Adaptec 1542


    I hate to have to re-compile the kernel every time there's a new one out,
so is there anything I can do to the stock release (which uses modules) to get
this card to work at bootup?
