   Hi there.  I have a machine (sparc64) which has a wide scsi 
controller in
it, and a wide SCSI disk, but only a narrow scsi cable.  The cases for 
this
are difficult to explain, but the disk has a receiver, so I can't 
simply put
a wide cable in.

   Is there a way to tell NetBSD, when booting, to treat a scsibus as 
narrow,
and all the devices on it as narrow, regardless of what they otherwise
negotiate?  I looked in docs and on the web, and was unable to find
this.

   Any suggestions?

   Thanks...
