>Description:
I am attempting to upgrade from 2.2.7-Release to 3.0-Release
using the Walnut Creek CDROM. When booting from the CDROM (using
install.bat), or from an installation boot floppy (boot.flp),
the boot process hangs after the message:
'Waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle'
I waited at least 5 minutes, with no change.
I use user-config to disable all devices which are not present
on my system.
If I boot from the floppy and disable the bt0 device in user-config,
the system successfully boots up to the installation menu.
Below are the last few lines displayed from an attempted boot with
the -v flag. Below that is an output of dmesg from the same system
booted under FreeBSD 2.2.7-Release.

>How-To-Repeat:
Boot 3.0-Release install floppy or CDROM (using install.bat),
and leave device bt0 enabled in user-config.
>Fix:
Boots to installation menu if bt0 is disabled in user-config.
