hi,

I didn't try actually taking a dump, I just wanted to make it boot.
I tried "reboot -d" just now and it crashed in sddump().
after fixing the bug with uninitialized variables in sddump(),
now it fails to dump because this check fails:

	/* Make sure it was initialized. */
	if ((periph->periph_flags & PERIPH_MEDIA_LOADED) != 0)
		return (ENXIO);


anyone have any ideas why this check would fail for a normal scsi disk?

-Chuck
