aborting command due to timeout: error

[Jim Alexander <jjalexander comcast net>]

I am loading RedHat 8 on an old Dual processor server which only has one
Pentium III 450MHz processor, 512MB RAM and on board SCSI ( Adaptec
AIC-7896N).  RedHat 7 loads and works just fine on the system but with RH 8
it seemed to load just fine but on boot up it would start a loop when trying
to find the SCSI drivers.  I reinstalled the system with Old Adaptec
AIC-7xxx drivers and on boot up I now get "aborting command due to timeout:
pid (#), scsi0, channel 0, id (#), lun o I
Inquiry 00 00 00 ff 00".  This error message comes up over and over again.
Not sure what to do at this point any ideas? If any ideas give details, I'm
fairly new at Linux.

Thanks,
Jim
