debian 2.0 refuses to get installed in a box with a SCSI disk.



¡Hola!
I just can't get debian 2.0 installed in a Fujitsu S3000 box. 
At boot time, when 'loading linux', it reboots after some '.'.
The same 'Rescue disk' worked fine on other (different) computers.

The system is an Intel Pentium, at 90 MHz, with 24 MB RAM.
There is an Adaptec AIC-7850 Host SCSI Adapter (BIOS v1.11) at
Bus:Device 00:04h
The SCSI device list is:

SCSI ID #0	CONNER CFP1080S		Drive C: (80h)
	#3	NEC CD-ROM Drive:501
	#7	AIC-7850 Host SCSI Adapter

Besides, there is the following:
	3 1/2 floppy drive unit, 
	250/420 MB Conner Internal Minicartridge Drive,
	Cirrus Logic VGA card, CL-GD543x PCI VGA
	DLINK PCI Ethernet Adapter, DE-530CT

First I thought that something could be wrong in BIOS setup. I disabled
shadow RAM and even all cacheable areas, but it didn't work. Then I had
a look at Bootparams-Howto in search of something for SCSI drives, but
all tunable parameters seemed to be in their proper values. 
Have I missed something?
Does anyone have a machine like this?
Any help will be appreciated.
