I cannot install debian-amd64 on my Tyan based machine.
This problem looks like a previous one, posted here some weeks ago.
PROBLEM: instalation "freeze" after loading the scsi driver.
BUT: actually, I have succeded one installation (3 weeks ago); after
upgrading the system (and the kernel) some days ago, I could not
reboot. So, I decided to reinstall...When the system whas working
(before I upgraded
it), it was also difficult to reboot the machine, with a lot of "retry"
of the scsi driver during the boot sequence.
Yes, I have similar problems. I have not gotten a modern kernel
running on it.

4) I load mptscsih ....
and here, the machine freezes.
any idea ?
Yes, I have seen this. I have no solution so far. Can you see if an
upstreams kernel have the same problem?
