After booting from a 1.1 boottape, partitioning the drive, copying the 
mini-root, and re-booting with the miniroot, I get:

Boot: sd(0,0,1)netbsd -s
scsi: getbyte failed
invalid status msg = 1
scsi: getbyte failed
invalid status msg = 1
scsi: getbyte failed
invalid status msg = 1
scsi: dma never completed

The drive is properly detected during boot.


  Also, performance seems to be a bit slow.  Doing a dd bs=8k if=/dev/sd0b 
of=/dev/null only yields about 70K/s.  This is an older Fijitsu Fast 
SCSI-II drive that I know can sustain 2MB/s.
