SCSI id 4 is "reserved" for a fixed disk drive.

The SCSI configuration in the config file is not used - that configuration
is for the "new" machine-independant SCSI driver, which are not currently
used. The pmax port is still using an "old" pmax SCSI configuration, with
some "glue" to fit the old drivers into new config structure. That glue
code hard-wires targets 0-4 to rz0-rz4 and targets 5-6 to tz0-tz1.
You will need to either use ID 5 or 6 for your tape, or modify
pmax/pmax/conf-glue.c to change the target-device mapping.
