Ok, now I did not mention that the SCSI bus connecting said drives happens 
to be an Adaptec ISA 152X SCSI card.
The BIOS has some kind of SYMBIOS SCSI support, but no chips or
interface connector I can see. I'll look into that first.

As for DMESG for PowerPC -- Cannot do easily.
No-floppy, no kbd, nothing except the programmers reset and power. :(
Heck I cannot even boot from the Network unless I have an Intel
Box to netboot from... "The Horror! The Horror!"

As for DMESG for Intel P1 -- Please refer to PR::1623  the DMESG
from that snap-shot is similar except that 2.9 is the kernel
as opposed to 2.8.  Similar problem, except that it is the BSD kernel
as opposed to the Floppy kernel.
