I have experienced similar problems especially when the (JAZ) drive was spin down when booting. The kernel says something about not finding the 2940 which I don't remember since I (still) don't have a serial console. I have also suspected the autotermination and turned it to ON. I have also tried playing with the various AHC_xxx options but never succeeded. -Andre
