I've tried both noacpi and noapic but none works

About the hardware it has a adaptec aic-7890 scsi controller (Bios version
2.20A) and a emulex lp8000 (?)


the aic stuff can sometimes take a very long time to setup and run on the 2.6 kernel ( on your machine spec it might not come up at all! )

try booting the installer into debug mode, see how far it gets. Alternatively, disable the aic stuff completely ( the kernel doc has the options )

Finally, try the CentOS-3 installer. some of these really old cards are better supported there.
