Just had a similar problem.  I'm not at all sure that we have the
same problem, as I don't have the smartarray controller.  But I
was advised (on this list, check recent archives to and from me)
to use the SmartStart CD and reset the OS to linux.

Not having a SmartStart CD, I d/led the sys config util from HP
and used that to reset the bios.  *Then* I had to use the same
kit to say "the next thing I'm going to do after a reboot is 
install a new OS."  Else, no matter how I held my head or which
creative invectives I used, the system would hang/panic just after
probing the internal SCSI controllers.
