	I took Justin's advice, downloaded the 2.2.20 kernel, compiled it
and it runs without a hitch.
	Then I downloaded the 2.2.19 patch and applied it with this
command:

cd /usr/src/linux && cat ../patches/linux-aic7xxx-6.2.1-2.2.19.patch.gz |
patch -p1

	When I recompile the kernel (with make bzImage) I get this error:

scsi.h:644: warning: `end_scsi_request' defined but not used
make[3]: *** No rule to make target `aic7xxx/sequencer.h', needed by
`aic7xxx.o'.  Stop.
make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi'
make[2]: *** [first_rule] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi'
make[1]: *** [_subdir_scsi] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/drivers'
make: *** [_dir_drivers] Error 2


	Can someone tell me where I went astray?
