Well, OK, three things spring to mind.

1. Try the attached patch, just in case it's a perpetual timer reset
issue.
2. You should be able to boot if you set the device speed to 10MHz in
the adaptec bios (since we should read the bios values for setting the
speed)
3. when the hang occurs, can you get an alt-sysrq-p to show the current
process on CPU?

Thanks,

James
