The commands insmod, lsmod, modprobe, rmmod etc. are in /sbin. Generally, this directory is not on your path unless you have become the root user by going through the login process. That means if you use "su" you must use "su -" to do it, or you will have to directly manipulate your path. So are you saying you have a SCSI adapter in this computer that isn't being recognized, the driver for it is not being loaded? And therefore the devices attached to this SCSI adapter cannot be accessed? You will need to know what is the correct driver for your SCSI adapter. If this adapter wasn't picked up during installation of Fedora, then it may not be supported. If you added the SCSI adapter after installation, then you will probably want to add an alias to your /etc/modprobe.conf for it like so (substituting the correct module name): alias scsi_hostadapter aic7xxx Then when you boot your system, the driver module will get loaded for you (you may need to make a new initrd). And if you have other SCSI adapters the one you add should have incrementing numbers appended like so: alias scsi_hostadapter1 sata_via -- C. Linus Hicks <lhicks at nc dot rr dot com>
