aic7xxx with Solaris UFS partition still loops

I have Solaris 2.5 on my Conner 540 SCSI-2 on a PCI AHA2940W
controller. Linux boots off of my IDE which is enabled in BIOS.
After the aic7xxx driver detects and finds 1 scsi host it does a
a partition check of sda and then I'm history:

Infinite loop of this:

aic7xxx: Target 0 underflow - Wanted (at least) (1024) got(512) count(1).
aic7xxx: Target 0 underflow - Wanted (at least) (1024) got(512) count(1).
aic7xxx: Target 0 underflow - Wanted (at least) (1024) got(512) count(1).
aic7xxx: Target 0 underflow - Wanted (at least) (1024) got(512) count(1).

I'm assuming its my screwup, I previously had Win95 on the scsi which
mounts great with VFAT fs. Using 2.0 kernel *whee* but its not new to 2.0.
I have UFS support compiled in. Even if it is my screwup it would be
cool if aic7xxx would timeout eventually (so Linux can boot!) but I'm
ignorant of SCSI drivers so I won't throw rocks.
