hdd: packet command error: error=0x54
ATAPI device hdd:

Why did this happen? I didn't have a disc in slot 1. I wanted to change to
slot 2. Instead, the kernel decided it didn't want to because there was no
media in slot 1. Should be a simple fix to allow changing when the slot
you're changing FROM is empty. I'm using an NEC 4x4 ATAPI here. This
doesn't happen on the Pioneer SCSI Changer.
