Boot problems

Hallo, I installed Ubuntu on my pc, the installation did not give me any
problem, but, at the first boot something went wrong.

My pc is a dual PIII at 600MHz, Adaptec UWSCSI onboard, 512 mB of RAM. The
first problem is the loading of the modules for the SCSI, at first it is
recognized and all SCSI devices are detected correctly, later it give me
these errors (I did not find anything in the log, so i wrote down by
hand only part of the screen log):

aic7xxx already loaded
modprobe: fatal: error inserting aic79xx (/modules/path/aic79xx.ko): no
such device
aic79xx: can't be loaded
missing kernel or user mode driver aic79xx
8139too fast ethernet driver 0.9.27
unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address d8d940f8
...
...
oops: 0002 [#1]
preempt
modules linked in: "a lot of modules names"
cpu: 0
"a lot of information i did not write"

then the computer hangs up.

I never had such a problem, I tried several distros on this PC,
Debian Woody (with kernel 2.4), ArchLinux, Gentoo and every day I use
Mandrake 10.0.

Where can I find the log of these early messages? I suppose I can not
find them, because the system, probably, cannot find the hdd.

Thanks, Pietro.
