Waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle *groan*

Cheers, Emiel -- The real pain for me is, What would you do with the 15 seconds you save once in a while? It's not really a problem and if you see it that way then recompile your kernel like real men do. I see no reason for it. And I do recompile, but you know, most computers these days do not have SCSI, so it seems a bit backwards to overly compensate for a small number of dodgy SCSI devices that take ages to start (when most computers don't have it, and those that do probably don't have said devices). I'd say most people who see this when they install are thinking But I don't have SCSI...

Which environment? I built it two days ago fine on post-HEAD. If you
can, drop the output of bmake somewhere or mail me the last 250 lines.

Hi, sorry I took a while, didn't think I had any responses :-)
It is a 1.2.0 RELEASE install, I haven't built world/kernel at all yet.
Here is the relevant part of 'bmake install' in
/usr/pkgsrc/meta-pkgs/xorg
I suppose I'll be told to update my system? :-S

At this time, 907 packages have been packaged successfully out of 1356 (out of 5523 total to do). I have been committing some fixes for DragonFly. I am doing this as a non-root user, so some may are not packaging due to permission problems such as installing with mode 555 and then attempting to ranlib on it. (I am fixing these too for those who like to do unprivileged installs for their own use.) I will let you all know in a day or so when it completes. (The bulk builds framework generates an email and HTML reports.) Thank you, Matt D., for shell access on a quick machine. And thanks also to Joerg S. for many fixes. Jeremy C.
