I have a 7600 but it no longer has this disk in it (it's in another
machine).  Could somebody with a 7600 and this disk and the kernel
sources do the following: change drivers/scsi/mesh.c to #define
MESH_DBG and to initialize mesh_debug_targets to 1, and send me the
resulting debug log?

I may be able to take my fireball1280S out of the machine it's in if
we can't resolve the problem soon.

Paul.
