This won't help me. scsiscan registers alias names as listed in a config
file - this means that I get /dev/scsi/usr, /dev/scsi/cvs_disk etc., and I
can mount them - and the system still boots without modifications when I
swap disks between multiple SCSI controllers, change IDs etc. - the only
fixed thing is the disk containing the root fs for now.
