Bug Description
Hi
When booting a live install SD card for an iMX51 Babbage board, there's a long delay on boot just after:
scsi 0:0:0:0: Direct-Access USB TO I DE/SATA Device 0041 PQ: 0 ANSI:0
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI disk
sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 0
There's a SATA port on this board, and it's obviously implemented on top of USB.
Because I have no SATA disk connected, there's a long timeout before casper proceeds to checking the other devices.
Is there anything which can be done in casper to avoid this delay?
Perhaps we can force the live device?
Thanks,

We're already setting LIVEMEDIA, I'm a bit surprized that it's not picked up; perhaps we need a rootdelay as well.
