This is a known problem with the 2.0.36 kernel images that we ship.
If you can, try compiling a kernel without the WD scsi support, that
may help.  You can replace teh kernel on the rescue floppy following
the instructions in the Installation Manual.  If you're not in a
position where you can compile a new kernel, then let us know and I
may be able to track down an alternate rescue image...
