I had similar problem with 2.4.5 Kernel. I managed to solve the problem by 
configuring a working verion of kernel with
NCR53C8XX SCSI support as well as SYM53C8XX. As far as I understood
SYM53C8xx support covers 53C8xx chips better than NCR53C8xx and that makes 
all the difference. Anyone understands why?
