there are lots of explanations. My new quad xeon did the same. I took
the hard drive to another machine, built the kernel there, and it works
perfectly on the new machine. Apparently the redhat distribution (mine
was the reliable 5.0 CD) has a scsi driver that gets confused with the
NCR53C896 (I guess) scsi controllers built in to this machine. You might
simply have hardware too new. I'm going to try 5.2 when I get my hands
on it, as I can not "recover" using the CD if something gets blasted in
the root filesystem...
