This is a shot in the dark: Make sure that none of your SCSI devices
are set to SCSI ID 7, which is reserved for the SCSI controler.
I once saw a RISC system which had its 1/4" tape drive ID set to 7, and
it spent a LOT of time playing with the CD and tape drive before finishing
booting. When I went to use the tape, it was not Available.
Do a quick check with "lsdev -C". Just a guess.
