Your hard disk is at the raid controller? Then you must compile its driver fixed into the kernel (not as a module). I think this is "Adaptec AIC79xx U320 support" in Device Drivers / SCSI device support / SCSI low-level drivers. Also enable "SCSI disk support" (in SCSI device support).
Make sure you select those things with [*] not with [M].
You will also need to compile the driver for the root file system as [*]. Use the "mount" command without options if you don't know which file system is used. Then localize its driver in "File systems" and make it have a <*>.
PS: what kind of Xeon is that exactly? The chipset looks quite old, I could imagine the CPU is some netburst Pentium 4 based Xeon. You might not have very much fun with it. It's quite slow...
