After putting the drive (wde18300) in Sparc I get this:

--being--

Sun Ultra 2 UPA/SBus (2 X UltraSPARC-II 296MHz), No Keyboard
OpenBoot 3.11, 1024 MB memory installed, Serial #9273014.
Ethernet address 8:0:20:8d:7e:b6, Host ID: 808d7eb6.



{0} ok probe-scsi
SCSI unexpected phase = 2
{0} ok

--end--



Using Google to look for > SCSI unexpected phase = 2 < turned this up:

   My colleague finally solved the problem.  After playing
around
   with the jumper settings, he finally hit the mark.
Apparently,
   the drive had to have the jumper on the "Disable Target
Initiated
   Synchronous/Wide Negotiation" pins (pins 21 & 22 -
disabled).
   According to documentation I managed to find on the net

(<http://www.wdc.com/acrobat/SCSI-IG.pdf>http://www.wdc.com/acrobat/SCSI-IG.pdf
- page 17), the drives were
   supposed to come with the jumper (on pins 21 & 22) already in
place,
   however they did not!

--end--

Now I get:

--begin--

I'm going to have ago at installing Solaris 8 on it. If it works I'll
tell ya all. If it don't I'll tell ya all anyway.
