 Can't get access to full dmesg atm, only machine with 3.0 and SCSI tape
 drive is the other end of the country and I'm not in a position to
 reboot it atm. Actual error message that comes up from the kernel is:
 
 probe(trm0:0:3:0): SCSI OpCode 0x12 timed out
 
 Can look into it some more if you need any more info though.
