Has anyone had any success using a MediaVision Reno portable
SCSI CD-ROM drive with NetBSD-current?  I haven't been able
to get it to work on my system.  When I boot the machine, the
kernel hangs when it recognizes the drive.  It is obviously
trying to do *something*, since the drive spins and gronks.
I can get things going only by stopping or resetting the
drive; then the boot sequence continues.  The same sort of
things happen when I try to mount /dev/cd0a.

I'm using an Amiga 2000 with a GVP SCSI controller
(GVP G-Force 040).  The drive works fine from AmigaDOS.

Here are the messages from the console:
