Questions about 5.2.1 and Dell 4000 laptop

[Jim Durham]

Some months back, I tried to upgrade from 5.1 to 5.2 on my Dell 4000 laptop 
and ran into two problems. The Adaptec SCSI card would no longer work and I 
could only boot by choosing choice #2, "Disable ACPI" on the start menu.

What's the status on these? Do these work in 5.2.1? Google tells me nothing..
I'd like to upgrade, but I need the SCSI.

Thanks!
