.Dv SCSI_DELAY
and
.Dv IDE_DELAY
may be used to reduce system boot times.
The defaults are fairly high and
can be responsible for 5+ seconds of delay in the boot process.
Reducing
.Dv SCSI_DELAY
to something below 5 seconds could work (especially with modern drives).
Reducing
.Dv IDE_DELAY
(only available for PC98) also works but you have to be a little more careful.
