I use an ata drive (master0) and a dvd drive as master1. Booting hangs probing the dvd-drive *ONLY* when it's empty. When I put a CD in it (no matter what) the boot process just runs smoothly (both ad0 and acd0 are seen ;-) With 6.0R this no longer happens. The empty dvd-drive does not hang the boot process any longer.
