I your root filesystem is located on a scsi disk, you need either
scsi support and scsi disk support statically linked, or you need an
initrd (initial ram disk) that contains the scsi driver modules and
scripts that load them. Please search the web and/or look into how your
Linux distribution makes use of an initrd if you are interested in
setting up your own initrd.
