Yes. i've encoutered a similar problem with my Ncr53c810.

the problem is located in your "generic" kernel. you need a specific one
compiled for your machine.

You may solve your problem in two ways:

1) ask a friend to make a boot-floppy with a specific kernel.

2) install a base of linux that will permit you at least to recompile the
kernel on a ide drive (unplug the scsi card before)
    then recompile the kernel to recognize all your hardware (including SCSI
card). Plug your scsi card again and boot.
  if it stop again your kernel is incorrect otherwise continue normally.
 now you can setup all scsi peripherals.

I've used both solution and they works fine.
