Oh please, Peck, stop taking the pillz <slap> The scsi standards have
nothing to do with the mismanagement in applied design at the Linux front
end. It's a dog's breakfast discovering which unit is assigned what.

As Bill pointed out, having used your faithful hard drive Lun=6 , you
install 'something else' at Lun=2 and bang, your hard drive has gone awol.
Pure and simple, this is a poorly thought out part of the driver topology.
Complaining about it is as useful as saying all cheese should be green, I'm
not complaining, I'm asking for the /source/documentation for some overides
as I know they existed in Kernel 2.2x and am looking for same at 2.4x
