Hi, I want to add a new external scsi disk with id 2 to my
sparc-solaris-2.5.1. while booting the machine I get a 
WARNING /sbus at 1,f8000000/esp at 0,800000/sd at 2,0 (sd2):
        corrupt label - wrong magic number
and later after booting format doesn't give me that disk as an option for
disklabeling and formating. there is even no entry in /dev and /dev/[r]dsk 
available.
the warning implies that the disk gets recoginzed. of course, there is no
disklabel so I want to add one!
what am I doing wrong?
