Either you compiled the SCSI driver as a module (double check your .config) or it was compiled as builtin but failed to detect the hardware (ask the ncr53c8xx maintainer).

Trying to load the SCSI driver. Fix the "scsi : 0 hosts" and this problem will go away.

08:xx is SCSI, side effect of no host found.
>NMI Watchdog detected LOCKUP on CPU0, registers:
NMI oops is a side effect of having no root. This is not a modprobe problem, modprobe is only being called because the kernel needs root on SCSI but there are no SCSI hosts found. Fix the hosts problem and the rest should disappear.
