The second line above is broken.  As is documented in the file
/usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/README.aic7xxx, the aic7xxx= portion of an insmod
command can not have any commas (,) present.  The program insmod doesn't
handle the comma correctly and the options don't get passed to the driver. 
Instead, use this line:

options aic7xxx aic7xxx=verbose.extended
