a SEEPROM make sure that linux and all other operating systems think

+ "aic7xxx=scbram" - Some cards have external SCB RAM that can be used to
+ give the card more hardware SCB slots. This allows the driver to use
+ that SCB RAM. Without this option, the driver won't touch the SCB
+ RAM because it is known to cause problems on a few cards out there
+ (such as 3985 class cards).
"aic7xxx=irq_trigger:x" - Replace x with either 0 or 1 to force the kernel
to use the correct IRQ type for your card. This only applies to EISA
