the nice thing about scsi emulation mode... is it doesn't get nearly  
as far as any of the other options:

^t ^t p

1:
2:
3:
5:
6:  factotum pc	18ed2 dbgpc     18ed2	Pread (Wakeme) ut 0 st 0 bss  
3f000 qpc 0 nl 0 nd 0 lpc f01bd72e pri 10


whereas keeping the drive in ide mode at least gets me to:

init: starting /bin/rc
  1:
...
28:    floppy pc        0 dbgpc      0    Wakeme (Wakeme) ut 0 st 0  
bss 0 qpc 0 nl 0 nd 0 lpc f01bd72e pri 13


hrm.. no idea why a floppy is showing up there, I didn't configure  
that either.
