    Does it have an extra PCI SCSI card in it? If it does, then
    oik it out and try again. Also does probe-scsi (without the
    -all) fail with the MMU miss? Also from OBP, issue a
    reset-all - this has sorted stuff out for me previously.
    Finally have a look at scsi-initiator-id to see whether it
    is the default of 7. I have had truckloads of intermittent
    problems with SCSI recently :-(

    Prob of no help whatsoever :-( Apols.
