Bizarre.  I really don't know; the U34F driver has some seriously worn 
corners; I don't know anyone that actually has documentation on the old
card, let alone the newer ones.

You could try putting a printf in uha_init in i386/isa/ultra14f.c in
the function uha_init() thus :

        model = inb(ur->id);
        submodel = inb(ur->id + 1);
	printf("uha%d: model %d  submodel %d\n", uha->unit, model, submodel);

I suspect that the 34FB has a different set of identifiers...
