Description of problem:
I can install RHEL4-U3 on a PC (MotherBoard: Tyan S2721 Thunder i7500 Pro) 
with an on board Adaptec 7902 320MB/s SCSI (it should be using the aic79xx 
driver) and SCSI hard drives but the system fails to reboot completely.  I 
tried it 3 times.

RHEL4-U1 installs and seems to work OK.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Intall RHEL4-U3 on system that uses the aic79xx driver with 320MB/s scsi
