At least the drive won't fail a start unit when done via camcontrol.

Possible that this works, but a minute is hardly enough for a drive
with ID 14 - considered 6s per ID this means the given drive requires
84s after power-up.
But I doubt that the kernel waits - I should have noticed waiting a
whole minute.
Where is the minute defined?
If it is not solved by raising the wait to 120s it likely won't work.

I don't see anything on console.
