}

} in the boot display. Firstly is this normal? It doesn't show for any other
} SCSI disks attached to the system. 
} 
} Anyways, I run drvconfig followed by disks then format and though the disk
} comes up in the format list when I try to 'autoconfigure' the disk it
} fails.
} 
} Any ideas?

What sort of disk is it?
What's the output from "probe-scsi-all" at the PROM?
Have you tried using a different cable?
What sort of enclosure is it in?
Is it terminated properly?
What other disks are on the system?

rgds,
andrew.
