From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0) Description of problem: On Intel 2-way box, trying to install Red Hat 7.1 and installation hangs at the first step when trying to install the AIC-7xxx driver. This box has an Adaptec AIC-7896 SCSI Controller How reproducible: Twice or Three times Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot machine with installation disk in CD-ROM drive 2. Installer trys to load AIC-7xxx driver and hangs 3. Left installation for an hour to eat lunch, came back and driver was still hung in "loading" state. Unable to get past this point Actual Results: Unable to load the operating system on this machine. Tried on another Intel 2way box, but the second box also had an Adaptec AIC-7896 SCSI controller. So couldn't get past the first installation step which attempts to load the AIC-7xxx driver Expected Results: Would expect the installer to finish this step in a few seconds to a minute.
