Hi Guys,
		This behaviour results when booting VMS and the os_type
	at the console prompt is set to UNIX. The DPW has different
	ordering of the SCSI and IDE controllers for unknown reasons
	wnen os_type is VMS or UNIX.  Check your os_type setting. It
	should be VMS.

>>>show os_type
os_type             	OpenVMS
