NCR53C8xx Problem



I'm trying to install on a Dual PII 450 Intel 440BX-based system. This MB
has an integrated Symbios SYM53C876 SCSI controller, which uses the
NCR53C8xx SCSI driver. The 2 9GB drives are recognized by the BIOS, and by
the "integrated Symbios SCSI utility". Booting from the rescue disk (I've
tried the current disks from hamm, slink and potato), the kernel
recognizes both drives, and then goes into fits of the following until it
is rebooted or turned off:

ncr53c875-0: copying script fragments into the on-board RAM
SCSI host 0 abort (pid 23) time out - resetting
SCSI bus is being reset for host 0 channel 0
ncr53c8xx_reset: pid 23 reset_flags=2 serial_number=$INC \
	serial_number_at_timeout=$INC
ncr53x875-0: restart (scsi reset)

$INC is an integer that starts out 0 and increments by 1 each time this
sequence is printed.

Any ideas what I can pass to the NCR538xx driver to get it to work? Or
other ideas?

TIA,

	Tim
