[Wuss912]

For the fusion menu to open up doesn't scsi support have to be enabled?

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 :(
