What kind of drive is it ?

If it's an ATAPI one and with a recent -current (or 1.3.2 + IDE patches),
could you send me the boot output with wdcdebug_atapi_mask set to 0xff
(you can do this either with 'gdb --write /netbsd' or by changing it in
atapi_wdc.c and recompiling). Please send me the outputs with and without a
disk in the drive.
