I have just been able to : recreate a spindown problem with my Jaz drive. This problem also happens on a -current kernel from Jan 19, so this has been broken for a while. To recap: Accessing the raw device of a SCSI disk that has spun down is now broken and causes that device to go offline forever. Think JAZ drive in spin down mode :-). I recreated this problem five times in a row, and I have verified that my SCSI bus is indeed properly terminated and seated by phyiscal inspection and reseating of connectors. No other problems on the system can be seen. Warner
