No go. (tried both ways earlier. When it does work with 3 drives,
mounts as sdd1) The device sde1 does not exist in /dev/~, only
/dev/sde. If mounted as sde1, the message is that the device does not
exist. If mounted as sde, it "tries" to mount (recognizes that it is
read-only) and then barfs. This may be near the solution to the
problem; why are there pleny of device number ("partitions") for sda,
sdb, sdc, but not for any other SCSI device sde or higher in /dev/?
BTW, /var/log/messages is below
