If it is not loading the scsi bios from the controller at boot up then there
is probably some sort of hardware conflict, I would probably try shuffling
the cards that you have in your system i.e. move the scsi card to a
different slot. When you put the network card in it may be causing a
conflict as well, so try different slots. If your working with an intel
box, on boot there should be a list of irq's used by there various pci cards
just after the memory and hardware desciptions. I know there sorts of
things should not affect linux but maybe its worth a try...
