Hi all.

At boot, there is a good 20 second pause while vgscan runs because it tries to scan the CD drive.

Is there a way to stop this?

Also, interesting note: If it scans the CD and there is data on it the vgchange errors out saying it can't find the names of the devices....

Not at the moment. AJ's currently writing some code that will allow you specify which devices to scan in the config file.

I've also noticed it stopping any music CD's that are playing.
