Hi Florin (trimmed the cc: list a bit) -
The driver disk doesn't work so well after all, it drops the updated
driver in drivers/scsi rather than drivers/block (this seems to be an
anaconda limitation).
You can use "linux rescue dd" to get up and running, then copy the new
driver from drivers/scsi (the wrong place) over the old one in
drivers/block (the right place).
