Description of Problem: During boot of installation kernel, the qlogicisp module is loaded resulting in scsi errors, which just go into an endless loop that never stops.. How Reproducible: boot off redhat 7.1 cd with this controller in the machine. Here is the lspci -v from the machine with 7.0 installed. 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 440BX/ZX - 82443BX/ZX Host bridge (AGP disabled) (rev 03) Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64 Memory at fa400000 (32-bit, prefetchable) 00:0c.0 SCSI storage controller: Q Logic ISP1020 (rev 01) Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 17 I/O ports at 1400 Memory at fa100000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) 00:0d.0 SCSI storage controller: Symbios Logic Inc.

Sounds like there's a problem with the driver. Changing component.
Can you try to add the "noprobe" option on the syslinux: prompt ?
noprobe option doesn't work, soon as I try to load the driver it results in scsi timeout errors and halt's the install. <4>scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid 0, scsi 0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 0x12 00 00 00 ff 00
Can you give a bit more info about your system? (eg motherboard brand if known, type and number of CPU's, amount of memory etc)
