The above information suggests that (a) your Adaptec SCSI adapter is not
being detected, and (b) the sg module is not loaded. Your system should
look like it has two SCSI adapters, one for the Promise controller and
the other for the Adaptec. Depending on what order they are detected,
one should show up as scsi0, which is currently the case for your
Promise controller, and the other should be scsi1.

I suppose it's possible that nothing has referenced anything that would
cause the Adaptec SCSI driver to be loaded, assuming it is compiled as a
module. Have you tried doing a modprobe on the Adaptec SCSI driver (I
don't remember its name right now)? Try doing that and watch the end of
your /var/log/messages file.
