750 not rebooting on panic

I have a 750 with an SI 9900 controller and a pair of Eagle disk
drives.  However, the 750 repeatedly fails to reboot after a panic.  It
will load the boot, the vmunix, list the devices, and then just sit
there.  Upon typing a carriage return, the system responds with:
"Automatic reboot in progress..." and then continues on its merry way.
I have installed the device driver from SI, but other than this, have a
pretty much unmodified kernel. Has anybody else experienced this
problem before and / or can they provide me with a fix so that I don't
have to drive in to the office to type the carriage return when the
system crashes?  Thanks.
