The fast saturday solution came from Mervyn Weis.

"In the "cam" subsystem in /etc/sysconfigtab (you may not have any entries
there), there
is an entry for V5.x that can be used to turn on the display of disk names
at boot time:
cam:
        cam_bootmsgs = 1
If you turn this on, you should be able to see whether your disk is getting
identified
at all at boot time."
