There is no way to get more than I already posted. (Except maybe
with a serial console.) All other atempts ended at the first inquiry
command or even at sbp2's "Logged into SBP-2 device" message, leaving
the following SCSI commands to our imagination. Why does the kernel
reboot anyway? If it at least only halted, then I could watch klogd
at the virtual console.

However. The bug is probably in the handling of MODE_SENSE_10 responses
because this is how the new sbp2 code differs from the old code WRT
TYPE_DISK devices as far as I can see. The AVLAB enclosure's firmware
perhaps returns something like a TYPE_RBC device despite it claims to be
of TYPE_DISK.
