Disable the uha0 device via UserConfig (boot with the -c flag).  In the
Generic kernel, its probe stomps on the address space of the adpatec
after the adaptec is successfully probed, causing the error.  Once you're
up, you should remove all unneeded devices in your kernel both to save
space and to prevent these types of problems from cropping up when you
update your kernel source.
