Try booting it by passing the apci option to the kernel, I remember
having this issue back in the day with 7.x .

Basically when you get to bootloader type linux apci <whatever other
options you want to use> .

Subject: Booting from a SCSI using an Adaptec 7896

I am trying to use kickstart to install RedHat 9 on a machine using an
Adaptec 7896.  After failing several times, I tried installing it
straight...this failed too!

I have been able to successfully install Debian on this machine...what
should I do to figure out why it works for Debian and not for RedHat? 
There are a few entries regarding this for 7.1, but I would have
imagined that this has been resolved by now.

It hangs right after it tries to install the adaptec module.

Any ideas?

Mike
