SUMMARY: XP1000 won't boot

Thanks to the three Toms:
Thomas Sjolshagen and Dr Thomas Blinn of HP and Tom Linden.

As I suspected it is either a bad disk or a bad SCSI controller, most
probably the disk. I will carry out the suggestions offered to see
which it is (e.g. add another disk to see if it is recognized).

Regards,
Peter
