Hmm, I looked a little closer at your earlier email:

You used "cnfg 0" and not "cnfg 3" to get the SCSI disk list?  If this
is true, your disks are on the first external SCSI controller, not the
on-board SCSI controller.  I'm not sure of the top of my head whether
the INSTALL kernel supported multiple SCSI buses.

A little background: "board 3" is the motherboard, while "0", "1" and
"2" are the TurboChannel slots.  If you do a "cnfg 3", you should also
see info on what RAM your machine has, ethernet info, etc.
