The Adaptec experts are at aic7xxx@freebsd.org - they also maintain
the Linux driver (which is a port of the FreeBSD driver).
Try removing any other SCSI device drivers from the system. Some of them
touch the Adaptec. That's a long shot, since you have a custom kernel.
This really is a problem on the generic kernel.
My AIC-7850 (on the motherboard) is working using that driver and 2.0.6 .
