Iwill P55XUB motherboard and RedHat 4.2 installation

I am having a problem installing RedHat Linux 4.2. I had RedHat on my old
486DX4100 with some generic motherboard that was PCI, and RedHat booted and
ran great.
Well... I treated myself to some new parts. I purchased a Iwill P55XUB
motherboard and put a Pentium 233MMX processor on it. On the machine I
have 3 HDs, 2 IDE and one SCSI.
Here's the problem: I boot the RedHat install disks and LDLINUX comes
right up. I hit Enter and the kernel boots. As soon as the hardware
probing begins, things go nuts. I get a bunch of PCI errors that fly by so
fast I barely time to make out the letters PCI, and then the PC reboots.
Here's what's PCI in my machine:
EIDE/IDE controller (this is an ATA/33 controller, but I was planning to
stick Linux on the SCSI drive so I wasn't too concerned about getting this
device working)
AIC-7860 Adaptec SCSI controller
Serial Controller (My BIOS says this. I am assuming that it's the
Universal Serial Bus that they are talking about)
These three are integrated into the mother board.
Along with this I have an STB Powergraph 64+ PCI video card installed (has
an S3 Trio64V+ chip on it. Worked fine on the old 486 system.)
The machine also has an IBM 6.4 GB IDE HD. A Seagate IDE HD 1.6 GB and a 1
GB Compaq SCSI hard drive.
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. I'd hate to lose my favorite
OS just becuase some PCI device is mucking things up!
