So you're not getting the "PCI: Found IRQ x for device y" message? Perhaps you have an APIC problem? Try turning the APIC off in BIOS Setup, or playing with the APIC kernel config options. > scsi0 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 6.2.4 > <Adaptec 29160 Ultra160 SCSI adapter> > aic7892: Ultra160 Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 32/253 SCBs I've got a 2940 (aic7895, rev. 6.2.36); all built-in as the SCSI bus hosts my boot filesystem; works fine for me, never had a problem.
