Description of problem:
Boot Hangs on the Adaptec Driver Initialization When using a SMP Kernel.   when 
the Stock RH7.3 SMP kernel didn't work, I tried the Stock Uniprossesor kernel, 
Boots fine!  I then built my own Minimilistic Kernel with SMP and that hung in 
the same place as the stock SMP kernel.  I will list exact hardware in the 
Addtional Information.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Use Similar Hardware?
2.install Redhat 7.3
3.Try booting
	

Actual Results:  Hangs on Boot right after:
