You know, I didn't think about that.  I'm using the default slackware
scsi kernel, so I assumed scsi was built into it, but probably not..
Least not the module, and since I've never heard of initrd...  I'm
assuming that's something not normal on slackware.  I think I've seen it
on red hat, but never on slack, so I never knew what it was for.

I ran badblocks on it last night to make sure there wasn't any problems,
and though sda made a couple wierd sounds in the same spots on each
butterfly write, both drives came back fine.  I will reinstall
everything tomorrow and build a custom kernel.  That would really make a
lot of sense, don't know why I didn't think about that.  I guess I
assume to much!  It's boots off the cd, but that's got the driver built
in!
I appreciate the info, thank you.
