Is the changer initializing (arm moving, etc) when FreeBSD is booting? If so, you may want to try using a longer SCSI_DELAY in your kernel's config and see what happens. Also, it should be ok if the scsi controller resets the changer, scans the bus and does not see it since the OS will scan the bus for itself (and not depend on the card's bios). ----- Chris D.
