Wait 15 seconds for SCSI to settle

[Sean Countryman]

The bad news:  Recompile your kernel

The good news:  Just change this line:

options         SCSI_DELAY=5000                  #Delay (in ms) before 
probing SCSI

You really just need to eliminate anything (the DEVICE lines) that is 
not needed across the whole config file.  Read the LINT file for a full 
list of all available options

If you don't know how to recompile your kernel, it's actually pretty 
straightforward, just repost to the list and I (and probably many 
others) will be willing to help you out.
