This is a symptom of a known bug with the esp driver; If there are no
devices on the SCSI bus the initial SCSI bus probe causes an endless reset
routine in the driver.  The solution is to build a kernel without the esp
driver.  I believe there is a precompiled DISKLESS_3X (or DISKLESS3X)
kernel out there which does not have an esp driver compiled in.  I
haven't checked the ftp server lately.  Let me know if you can't find such
a kernel.
