The mac_scsi driver always had a bug where multiple devices being
used at the same time on one bus could fail due to reselection
timeout. I don't remember that bug being permanently fixed. The
error message you included looked very similar to that one. Some
default boot settings use a kernel command line option to change
some settings in the mac_scsi driver (mac5380=4,2). I don't
remember for sure what the arguments do exactly, but if you
search back through the archives, there is probably some stuff.
