Yea but it throws people way off to see it in dmesg than not have a dev
entry.  I mean, it's simply not documented in the FAQ, etc.

...getting back to the original point ( sorry >:} ), traditionally on most
_supported_ sparc/sparc64 SCSI interfaces (esp, isp?) without getting into
multiple LUNs, etc., are limited to 7 IDs/targets on the bus, 7 being
static/taken by the controller/adapter (not changeable that I know) --
therefore it would make sence to have at least 7 default devices for
addressable devices (0-6).

...as for rethinking all of /dev, I agree.  But what about static ID >
Device entries in the kernel such as standard RAIDFRAME configs?
