Yes, that is the approach I have taken, because the initramfs image
didn't work either. It's really a matter of which are the options that
are required to support this controller.

During the kernel build, it says SCSI and PCI are needed, but I'd like
to find a more complete list of the specific options that are
necessary, such as ACPI, etc.

Thanks,
