This weekend I ran into exactly the same problem with parity errors, but after updating to 6.2.5 driver version, kernel completely stalls just after the line SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00
The system in problem is:
Dual PIII-1266, SuperMicro P3TDER motherboard, onboard aic7899 SCSI controller: Bus 0, device 5, function 1: SCSI storage controller: Adaptec 7899P (#2) (rev 1). IRQ 27. Master Capable. Latency=64. Min Gnt=40.Max Lat=25. I/O at 0xd800 [0xd8ff]. Non-prefetchable 64 bit memory at 0xfeaff000 [0xfeafffff]. Bus 0, device 5, function 0: SCSI storage controller: Adaptec 7899P (rev 1). IRQ 26. Master Capable. Latency=64. Min Gnt=40.Max Lat=25. I/O at 0xd000 [0xd0ff]. Non-prefetchable 64 bit memory at 0xfeafc000 [0xfeafcfff].
I tried both updating driver for kernel 2.4.18-ac3 and switching to kernel 2.4.19-pre3-ac1 - the same effect. Though on another computer with Asus P2B-DS motherboard (onboard aic7890) kernel 2.4.19-pre3-ac1 works fine.
