Is the SCSI bus terminated at both ends?  If you are using external
SCSI terminators, have you removed the SCSI terminators from the disk
drive and other SCSI devices (if any)?  Is it possible that one of the
devices for which you don't list an IRQ actually has an IRQ of 11 (the
same as the SCSI host adaptor)?  Is it possible that two of the devices
on the SCSI bus have the same LUN?  (Remember that the host adaptor
itself has a logical unit number, typically 7, sometimes 0 or 6.)

Sorry to ask such simple questions, but there was a time when I
wouldn't have thought of these things.
