I suppose to rebuild "kernel-2.6.9-1.3_FC2".  If I'm
wrong please correct me.

$ ls -al
/lib/modules/2.6.9-1.3_FC2/kernel/drivers/scsi/ | grep
aha152x.ko
-rwxr--r--   1 root root  52628 Nov 15 15:52
aha152x.ko

It is already there.

Is it possible to check before starting recompiling
the kernel.

I could not locate them.

# find / -name KERNEL
find: /proc/2714/task: No such file or directory
# find / -name aha152.x.txt
find: /proc/2714/task: No such file or directory
# find / -name Documentation
find: /proc/2714/task: No such file or directory

Please advise.  TIA
