Hi all, This is a non issue. Removing the Cdrom made no difference to the Disksuite config at all. Thanks to Darren Dunham who was key to getting me to question my assumptions. Having been burnt getting jumpstart to work with these sunfires, where there is some relationship between disk device names and the presence or absence of a Cdrom, I was sure that Disksuite would have similar bother. None of it! A "probe-scsi-all" before and after removal of the cdrom only showed the expected change. And "format" was similarly unaffected. Regards Fergus.
