 Hmmm, is aic7xxx compiled as a module in the xen 2 kernel ? What does a
   find /lib/modules/*xen* -name aic\*
 give ?

 I've just looked on a server using xen 3.0.3 and the module is there.

 Well, you could run a 2.6 kernel on RHEL 3. Actually, I think you
can forget about your RHN support if you run a non-RedHat kernel
anyway, so you might as well go with a 2.6 one. The only package I
need to change on a RHEL 3.7 server to run a 2.6 kernel is
modules-init-tools (just get it from RHEL 4).
