Don,
Try with just one of the harddrives connected, I had problems
with 2.0.33 if I had two disk drives. It didn't matter if I had a hard
drive connected to the onboard aic7880 and a zip drive
(on the parallel port), or two harddrives on the aic7880. If this
works, after installing Redhat, install the 2.0.34 kernel, and you
should be able to use both harddrives(2.0.34 fixed my timeout
problems).
