customization

I found this link to modify an Ubuntu install CD. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCDCustomization

However, I want to put the Adaptec aic94xx RAID driver onto the disk so that my RAID controller is recognised and I can set up a mirror.

How do I go about doing this? Firmware file is: http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jejb/aic94xx-seq.fw
