Possibly "noprobe", see
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/install-guide/ch-bootopts.html

You could cheat and remove the module from the installer kernel somehow,
or use the fixed, updated kernel-BOOT package to rebuild the stage1
installer.

Can you pass any arguments to the driver to work around the lockups:
$ modinfo `locate aic7xxx.o`
