scsi-controller in Ultra 10 not recognized...

hi,

in my ultra 10 I have a scsi-hostadapter Single-Ended Ultra/Wide SCSI 
(SunSwift PCI), Partnumber: 501-5656

attached are two scsi-disks type ST19171WC SUN9gb on target-id 0 and 1.
(both in SUN-Unipacks, active HD68 terminated)

when I try to install Linux7.3 on one of these scsi-disks, 
they are not recognized by the system.
when I boot from cdrom into singleuser I can only see the ide-disk.
(I tried with fdisk -l, are there any other possibilities??)

if I try probe-scsi-all in OBP both disks can be seen.
and also if I boot Solaris 8, everything works fine.
I can see all disk with format.

I tried to load a drivermodule for the hostadapter.
(was a quite blue screen, is this yast1??)
the system suggests me to choose something like 'symbiosxxxx..'

but if I choose this (the onlyone..) controller nothing happens.
it beeps severaltimes an quits with an error.

the system asked me to fill in options for the scsi-drivermodule to
load.
do I have to choose options at all? And if so, which option should I
take??

any other ideas why it doesn't work with my scsi-controller??

(I hope you don't mind my English ...)

thanks for any help.

peter.
