Donīt know whether youīre familiar with scsi devices or not (I havenīt had
touched any scsi devices ītill last week); my problems turned out to be
caused by not giving them enough time to initialize before booting the
computer. I solved all my really strange problems by waiting 10 to 15 secs
before switching on my computer.
