Hi,

i have an old bernoulli drive on a sym53c875 SCSI Controller.
Without medium, FreeBSD 5.4 takes 6 minutes to boot, because of
several timeouts. When i saw that the time between these timeouts
is 60 seconds, i tried to change the value of DA_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT
in cam/scsi/scsi_da.c and/or via sysctl command.
It didn't help anyway, the system still waits 60 seconds for each drive
access.
I don't know how to change this, any suggestion?

Thank you.
