Thanks to Dr. Thomas Blinn for the solution:
In my recollection, the XP1000 was not supported in V4.0E. It is in
V5.x, but you have an unsupported configuration because you have the
CDROM drive connection to the second IDE port (dqb0) instead of to
the primary port (dqa0). The SCSI emulation logic for the IDE CDROM
drive doesn't work right to boot from dqb0. That's what the message
you are getting means. It has NOTHING to do with your SCSI hard disk
and in fact the odds are excellent that the SCSI disk will work just
fine once you move the IDE cable to the other connector on the system
motherboard.
I suspect Linux and the various BSD UNIX versions don't care about
this, but Tru64 UNIX doesn't get it right, and it's never going to be
fixed, so move the cable.

We recently purchased a used XP1000 system that ran FreeBSD. I am now
attempting to install Tru64 UNIX 5.1A on this system and am having a
problem. The drive I'm attempting an install to is an IBM
DNES-318350W. The output of "show config" and "boot dqb0" from
5.1A/4.0E is given below. I have a few questions:
1. Can I install 5.1A on the XP1000 using the onboard QLogic
SCSI controller?
2. What does the "init_rootdev: boot device translation failed"
error I received when booting 5.1A mean?
3. If 5.1A cannot recognize a drive on the onboard QLogic
controller, what SCSI card should I buy that will work with
the 5.1A install cd? I tried an Adaptec 39160 card which
was recognized by the SRM firmware but still 5.1A would
not boot.
What's odd is that the 4.0E install cd recognized the drive from the
onboard QLogic controller but the 5.1A install cd did not:
rz1 at scsi0 target 1 lun 0 (LID=0) (IBM-PSG DNES-318350W !# SA30) (Wide16)
I have also tried the 5.1B and 5.1B-1 install CDs with the same
results as 5.1A.
