Is there a hardware conflict?  Try specifying the IRQ, etc, on the
modprobe commandline (or I suppose you could put an alias and an options
line in conf.modules).  If the card wasn't there when you installed the
system, then there won't be values for it there.

I think the install kernel has verbose SCSI errors enabled; have you
tried compiling a kernel?  What's in the syslog?

Is there proper termination and cabling?  Some cards don't auto-term
properly...

I've seen this sort of error before, but it was a cheesy SCA-to-68wide
adapter that wouldn't do wide negotiation (it only did ultra20).
