Thanks,
I was able to mount it by resetting the switches (although I could swear I
tried them with the current configuration but on scsi id switch 3).
Your information is greatly appreciated.

Strange. I have a NEC CD-ROM drive on my machine and I am pretty
certain the switch settings are per the drive manual. In general,
If this is the last drive on the chain, termination should be on.
SCSI2 should be OK. You should be able to see the drive with
diskinfo if you have the SCSI ID and driver major/minor set
correctly.

Yes. However, this is only for sam. You should be able to manually
mount/umount the drive. The busy error indicates that some process
is
trying to open device file (possibly, because you have the device
listed
in /etc/checklist).
