YES!!!!!

I have added the CAM_DEBUG options, and now the da0 is initialized.
Now I have:

  - parallel port in EPP mode in the BIOS.
  - ppc flags 0x7 (NIBBLE/PS2/EPP)
  - CAM_DEBUG options

... and it does work!

I also think that there is a timing problem, so I did a little test:
I removed the CAM_DEBUG options and added the SCSI_DELAY one. I was
expecting that the delay introduced by this option might have
the same effect that CAM_DEBUG. However, when I rebooted the new
kernel I saw that there was not any delay after the "Waiting 5 seconds
for SCSI devices to settle" message (and the da0 device was not
initialized). Why?
