I initialized /gpt on a RX2620 runing 1H1 and mounted it with
/cluster, but it only gets mounted on that box. Why?

There are capabilities needed for MSCP serving that are not in the
driver.
Any plans to do so? BTW, what is the transfer rate on USB?

No to the MSCP question.

Apparently shadowing doesn't work either. I tried shadowing a couple
of external 500GB drives (HP Personal Media drives). The first drive
mounted and worked ok, but the system crashed when I tried to add the
second drive to the shadowset(exception above ASTDEL). I also found that
dismounting the single member shadowset would crash the system.

Question: Might you try using LDDRIVER to "shield" DSDRIVER from the
weirdnesses of USB?

Specifically, I'm suggesting using LD CONNECT to specify a block range
from the USB devices, then INIT the LD devices and shadow them instead
of the "raw" USB device.

Working from (admittedly defective) memory here - my V7.3-2 system is
not currently booted/-able.
