That wont help anything here, this is pre device init stuff.. > Or make the length of the wait configurable, like SCSI_DELAY? That would be a gross hack, the spec says to wait 31 secs and thats it, if you want to wait shorter go ahead and change your local sources, but we need to find a real solution (and I will get there, I just need enough datapoints to find the right solution)... -Søren _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
