Okay, I went back to the textbooks and I know a little bit more about
what I am doing now. But I am trying to modify the ppSCSI patch for the
2.4.18 kernel, and I am not sure where to put the new additions in the
/drivers/scsi/Makefile. None of the context lines match up, so I was
just going to put it in at the end. Any suggestions otherwise? Does it
make much difference? Thanks!
