Comments/Problems:

Changed various settings on the scsi controller, bios enabled/disabled 
raid enabled disabled etc,
all without success. Tried an install with a 2.6 kernel, no success. 
Manually added the needed 
modules (aic7xxx.0 and aacraid.o and tried aic79XXX aswell) without any 
success (with kernel 2.4 and 2.6)

Felt quitte desparated ;-) so i've installed the machine with the iso from 
the open-sourcelab
which comes with the Red Hat driver for this controller. This worked out 
fine but this is not
the way to go since this iso comes with a static kernel.This iso can be 
found on:
http://wiki.osuosl.org/display/LNX/Debian+on+Dell+Servers but ... it's 
woody based.

Advantage of the installation is that i can provide you with the out put 
of lspci and lspci -n
see below.

I'm gonna try to do some work with the sources form the adaptec site and 
udeb, but maybe there
are some folks over here who had this problem before ... so if so i'll be 
very gratefull.

output lspci and lspci -n

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
  Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
  the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
  D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
  fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful


The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet. 

In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.

You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.

If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.

Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
