It looks like something is really unhappy with your second SCSI
controller.  Could either be a problem with the controller or some device
hanging off of it.  I'd suggest disconnecting any devices you have on the
second controller to see if it the machine boots okay.  I don't know off
the top of my head which of the two controllers acts as ncr1, but
according to the above messages it'll be the one that doesn't have a
100Meg SCSI hard drive and RX23 floppy drive connected to it.
