Kernel Panic with RAID

Thanks Andy and Rick for all your help I now see light at the end of the 
tunnel.
I hope I have provided enough of the correct information for you.

As suggested by Rick I added to /etc/modprobe.conf

> alias scsi_hostadapter aacraid

Then did:

> mkinitrd -f -v initrd-2.6.22.img 2.6.22

Then as Andy suggested I did:

> If you want to see what modules are in the initrd, you can use this plan
>
> mkdir /tmp/initrd
> cp /boot/initrd-blah.img /tmp/initrd
> cd /tmp/initrd
> gunzip -S .img initrd-blah.img
> cpio -i <initrd-blah
> ls -l lib

I still get the kernel panic even though I now see the aacraid.ko module is 
in the initrd
I *believe* this is the correct module.

Here's the panic message and my grub.conf:



root (hd0,0

Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x3a

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.22 ro root=LABEL=/ quiet

    [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x1e00, size-0x1cb174]

initrd /initrd-2.6.22.img

    [Linux-initrd @ 0x37c7f000, 0x370e89 bytes]



Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel.
