Ok after further investigation, I can get the system to recognize the card,

aha0 at port-0x130-0x133 irq 9 drq 5 on isa0
aha0: AHA-1542CF FW Rev. F.0 (ID=45) SCSI Host Adapter, SCSI ID 7, 16 CCBs

but when it does, I get all of these errors

 Waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle down
 (approximately 30-45 seconds later)
 (Probe0:aha0:0:0:0) CCB 0xc782c508
 (Probe0:aha0:0:0:0) CCB 0xc782c508
 aha0: aha_cmd: Timeout waiting for adapter idle
 ahainitmboxes: Initialization command failed
 aha0 no longer in timeout
 (Probe6:aha0:0:6:0) CCB 0xc782c508
 (Probe6:aha0:0:6:0) CCB 0xc782c508
 aha0: aha_cmd: Timeout waiting for adapter idle
 ahainitmboxes: Initialization command failed
 aha0 no longer in timeout

and after 30-45 minutes the system will finally get finished probing and give
me a login prompt.

So it's not an IRQ problem, in fact, the only way I can make the system
boot-up quickly is to make it share an IRQ.  On boot-up, it recognizes and
lists the tape drive, but when it comes to probing, it's no joy.

Any ideas/suggestions/hints?
