AIC 7892 boot problem

[jogi hofmueller <jogi@mur.at>]

hi!

i just try to get a brandnew machine running. now the kernel hangs at
boottime when it finds the scsi controller. the last message ist:

<scsi 0> Downloading sequencer code ... 396 instructions downloaded

i use a compact bootdisk from the frozen (potato) distribution. i also
tried the no_probe and no_reset kernel options - same result.

now i also have a slakware distribution here and when i boot the machine
with the slak cdrom everything works fine. the difference is that the boot
message says "... 374 instructions downloaded" and then it finds the disks
and just works fine. but i want the machne to run with debian-linux :))

thanx for helping
j.
