Adaptec SCSI card and long boot

Asked by karaluh

Dapper, 2.6.15-27-386. System freezes for 41 seconds on "Mounting root filesystem". I've found, that it's happening because of Adaptec's 39320D SCSI card. If it's pluged out, system boots normaly. Google, forum.ubuntu.pl and ubuntuforums.org weren't helpful. I used dmesg and peace of paper and got this:

The only references I could find was this one in OpenSUSE:-

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=195870

Does it also happen with a live CD such as an Edgy Desktop CD?
