Folks, I managed to get it to install (actually - update a 7.2 installation) by doing an expert install and selecting the "old" aic7xxx SCSI driver (I've seen some Bugzilla notes on differences in the BIOS of the AHA-2940U2W cards that don't support the new driver).
However, I'm back to the problem with the installed version of 7.3. How can I have the system boot and change the aic7xxx.o driver to the aic7xxx_old.o driver?

Here's the configuration: Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-6VXDC7 CPUs: 2 x 866 MHz Memory: 512 MB (one PC-133 DIMM) SCSI Adaptor 1: Adaptec AHA-2940U2W Dev 1 (9.1GB): Fixed Disk - Quantum Atlas V 9 LWS (LVD) <- Win XP Pro Dev 2 (4.3GB): Fixed Disk - Seagate ST34371W <- Red Hat Linux 7.2 Dev 3 (1GB): Removable Disk - Iomega Jaz SCSI Adaptor 2: Symbios Logic 53C810 Dev 1 (8mm Tape): Exabyte EXB-8505 IDE0: Primary: LG CED-8080B CD-RW IDE1: Primary: Pioneer DVD-ROM DVD-114 Video: Matrox G450 (16MB) NIC: D-Link DFE-530TX (Rev. A) Sound: Creative AWE64 Mouse: PS/2 Keyboard: PS/2 When I boot from the CD, the boot starts as normal. Once it gets past the new (and nice!) boot screen into the install screen it gets as far as the AIC-7XXX detection when it halts with the error: Kernel Panic: For safety I've tried installing without probing, but as soon as I select the AIC-7XXX devices, the same error occurs. I seached the web and Red Hat, but I guess it is too early for anything yet! Suggestions? Thanks!
