WREN V disk problems

I've got a WREN V disk connected to my Sun 3/60 which we think we have
wired correctly, but I can't seem to access.  It is jumpered to SCSI
address 1, which we think is target 1.  I added a line to the config file
to translate that to sd1, but I don't know if it's right.  The relevant
lines are:

  # Support for the SCSI-3 host adapter and the on-board SCSI controller
  # on several machines (e.g. 3/50).  Same device support as above.
  #
  # controller	si0 at vme24d16 ? csr 0x200000 priority 2 vector siintr 0x40
  controller	si0 at obio ? csr 0x140000 priority 2
  disk		sd0 at si0 drive 0 flags 0
  # Modified line below for WREN V at target 1. -liz 11/7/88
  #disk		sd1 at si0 drive 1 flags 0
  disk		sd1 at si0 drive 8 flags 0

But, when I try to format it, format only finds sd0.

I'm also not sure if I have the stuff in /etc/format.dat right.  What I have is:

  disk_type = "CDC Wren V 94181-702" \
	: ctlr = MD21 : fmt_time = 8 \
	: cache = 0x11 : trks_zone = 15 : asect = 3 \
	: ncyl = 1545 : acyl = 0 : pcyl = 1546 : nhead = 15 : nsect = 52 \
	: rpm = 3597 : bpt = 30170

I think that's probably pretty close, but...

Any help would be much appreciated!
