It's easy really:

This is done as root and from the CLI

First change to '/usr/src/linux'
Type 'make menuconfig'

When it comes up it's set as it was when you installed the distro.
Change what you need to get your scsi working. Use Help if you are unsure.
Leave the config.

Type 'make dep clean zImage modules modules_install'

When that is done, type 'cp /vmlinuz /vmlinuz.old'
then 'cp arch/i386/boot/zImage /vmlinuz'

Run lilo by typing 'lilo'
you should get a reply like:
Adding Linux*
(Adding DOS)

-or something.

If there is no errormessages, you can just rebbot by typing 'reboot'
