I know, that's how I install my dell and most of my IBMs

But they miss the drivers for the IBM x235 with the LSI 1030 MPT :(

The Fusion MPT stuff is not included, and they aren't under the SCSI Support,
but under Fusion MPT device support ie.

  x x         SCSI support  --->                                          x x
  x x         Fusion MPT device support  --->                             x x

  Choose this one and not the SCSI support,
  it should give you this menu:
  x x            <M> Fusion MPT (base + ScsiHost) drivers                 x x
  x x            <M>   Enhanced SCSI error reporting                      x x
  x x            <M>   Fusion MPT misc device (ioctl) driver              x x
  x x            <M>   Fusion MPT LAN driver                              x x

The aic7xxx is useless with the IBM x235 which need the FUSION MPT drivers :(
