Hi Paul,
thanks for your reply. But I'm still in trouble. :-(

You'll need the following files on the driver disk:

Write that lot to a VFAT format floppy and you're done.
I tried. The first thing was that sata_sis.ko didn't load because there was
no libata. The only way around it was to add the libata to the modules.dep
and also to the modules.cgz since I don't know how to address the libata
that comes with the installation DVD in the modules.dep.
I'd think it would be (in modules.dep):
sata_sis: libata scsi_mod
The current status is that I can read my driver disk, but then if
sata_sis is loaded I get this Ooops & kernel panic:
Oops: 0000 [#1]

Don't know what's up there; I'm no kernel hacker I'm afraid.
