I run a Pioneer DRM-602X SCSI Cd-Rom changer. Here is the problem, I run a mount_cd9660 /dev/cd0a /cdrom and the first drive mounts fine, however when I do a mount_cd9660 /dev/cd1a /cdrom2 for disk 2 the SCSI card times out while the disk is switching. It appears that mabey the SCSI card is taking control of the cpu while the disk is changing. I have the SCSI_DELAY set to 25 however the timeout I am experiencing is at 10 seconds. Where and how can I change this timeout say 15 or 20 seconds? Thanks Ryan Samples
