There are a couple of large threads on the Apple Discussion Boards
about Adaptec SCSI board problems under Tiger, including kernel panics
at startup or very soon after. There is a kernel extension that seems
very involved, the one named Adaptec290X-2930.kext. Try pulling the
Adaptec card and installing on an ATA drive. If you then remove the
Adaptec290X-2930.kext from the System/Library/Extensions folder you
should be able to put the SCSI card back in but you probably won't be
able to deep sleep the machine. Make sure the card has the latest
firmware, if it's still at v1.0 you need to upgrade it. For good
measure I also set all my SCSI IDs at high numbers (5, 6, 7, 8, etc.)
because Tiger reads SCSI devices as ATA devices and sometimes panics
when it can't distinguish between buses.
