Adaptec 2015S installation woes - Fedora 8

We're trying to upgrade a server that had been faithfully running
Fedora Core 5 with an Adaptec 2015-S card - 3 15k scsi drives in a
raid-5 config - to Fedora 8. I recall during my initial install in
FC5, I had to boot up with "linux install noprobe" and then manually
load in i2o_block in order to see the drives. After install, all was
well.
This go around, F8 doesn't see the i2o device by default, which is ok.
But running "linux install noprobe" and then manually loading in
i2o_block causes a kernel panic (or similar looking output). The
install process dies right then and there, no recovery possible, and
its game over.
I can't find any F7/F8 bugs related to this, but I found:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=189570
Which points to
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6561
Which seems to think the issue is fixed, but nonetheless, we're hosed
here.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
