Hmmm ... ok, what are the SCSI targets of the disk and MO?  What is the
exact error message?

That shouldn't cause any problems.  Sounds like SYS_INST is at fault.

I think I've mentioned this before, but I really don't have much of
a mechanism for testing SYS_INST on SCSI disks... my last spare SCSI
disk crapped out, and I'll have to scrounge up another one to plug into
my 340 before I can fix this... So, if anyone else finds the bug and
fixes it before I get a chance, cool :-)
