MegaRaid 2002 Only Works on Install

Hello. We are trying to get the megaraid 2002 driver working on a Dell Poweredge system with RedHat ES 2.1. The driver can be loaded properly on install via floppy.

Towards the end of installation when I <cntrl><alt><F2> and 'mkinitrd' as the Dell documentation instructs, I get a binary operator expected error on the megaraid_2002.o module. I don't know why the Dell documentation asks that I make initrd since it is already available in /boot.

On boot, the system throws up a screenfull of unresolved symbol errors for megaraid_2002.o and then kernel panics because it can't mount /boot and sees no initrd.

How can the driver work during installation, but not at boot? Any advice is appreciated.

Thank you, Victor.
