I think this RD54 may have died.  It DID have the spin-up disease, (Wouldn't
spin up), but this was just a bad case of stiction.  I spun the disk and it worked.
Now, I try to format the disk (test 70 on uVAX 2000) and it acts funny.
Before, it would only recognise as unit 1.  It would fail
the RdMbb step, format would be OK, and the Checkpass would take eternity.
(I let it run overnight, it completed 3 dots.)
I set it to unit 0, same trick but the RdMbb is OK.
Jumper problem?
