my reason for the original request (which a. j. casamento promptly
answered) was that i was in the process of installing an RZ24 disk
drive on a decstation 3100 running ultrix 3.1/uws 2.1.  there were
no entries for the RZ24 in the scsi_data.c provided with 3.1/2.1;
and the new disk was being "identified" at boot up as "UNKNOWN".
i merely wished to patch in an entry for the RZ24 into my copy of
scsi_data.c and to ascertain the appropriate flags for the scsi
probe routine (in scsi_devtab[]).
