problem with aic7xxx on 7.1 install/upgrade

[Jean-Luc Fontaine <jfontain winealley com>]

No matter what I try, (expert mode, ...), the loader tries to load the 
aic7xxx driver (my card is recognized as an Adaptec AIC-7896/7 Ultra2),
but then I get an unlimited bunch of:

scsi: aborting command due to timeout : pid 0, scsi 0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
...

and so on for each id.

Is there a way to manually insmod before then (that machine has a working 7.0 
with 2.4.2 kernel installation)?
