The latest kernels includes a more clever algorithm, to compute the
interrupt line of a device. Unfortunately it makes wrong assumptions
and don't get the right IRQ for the SCSI card.
I have provided a patch in
http://archive.redhat.com/axp-list/1998-February/0249.html
You will also find this patch on http://lhpca.univ-lyon1.fr/axp/
