FWIW, I also have this exact problem on a MSI 694D Pro Ar Mainboard, with an onboard Promise PDC20265.
Every kernel I've tried (up to 2.4.19-pre7) froze hard right after detecting the promise controller. It only hangs if there is a (any) device plugged into the controller.
(Don't have much more info at this point, I needed this box for work, so it got stuck with w2k, while my primary linux box is a ump 566. <sigh> I'd love to swap these two boxes, the 694 has a pair of 933's and a gig of memory, and sits mostly idle) -- Don Krause
