It's no longer so easy to do it that way. Besides, you really should
learn how to use patch :-)

If you have a 2.2.9 kernel in /usr/src/linux, the patch is little more
than:
cd /usr/src
patch -p0 < ppSCSI-0.90.patch
cd linux
make config
don't change any of your previous answers, except
make sure that you have included scsi support,
scsi disk support, pp scsi support, and epst as modules.
make dep; make modules
and finally do whatever you have to do to put the modules where
you want them
Once you have the modules in the right place.
insmod scsi_mod
insmod sd_mod
insmod ppscsi
insmod epst
Your SyJet should show up as /dev/sda ...

No. PARIDE is for IDE/ATAPI devices. EPAT and EPST are different devices.
