lspci -v

you didn't need to install to see that - you only needed to switch to a
console windows after booting the install disks and getting a console
with a command prompt.

lsmod doesn't really tell you anything about the hardware, only which
kernel modules the system is using and 7.2 is ancient history and
obsolete. If you had to do anything, you should use 7.3, RHEL 2.1 or
CentOS 2.x

But if you want to figure out what the SCSI problem is with the 2.6
kernels, you are going to have to investigate the issue with your
hardware and thus, lspci -v is a likely candidate for providing more
detail.
