[ale] HP NetServer Lxr Pro and Red Hat 9

[Jonathan Glass]

I run megaraid and aacraid cards.  Basically, you have to change to the
"megaraid_2002" driver, rather than just 'megaraid'.  2002 fixes lots of
problems with the older drivers.  Boot into recovery mode with RH8 (if an
OS is still present on the box), and change /etc/modules.conf to refer to
megaraid_2002 (check kernel first, make sure it is there).
