This is probably irrelevant now, but it is possible to wire down SCSI
devices in /boot/device.hints.  I had this in there when I was still
using SCSI:

hint.scbus.0.at="ahc0"
hint.scbus.0.bus="0"
hint.da.0.at="scbus0"
hint.da.0.target="8"
hint.da.0.unit="0"
hint.da.1.at="scbus0"
hint.da.1.target="10"
hint.da.1.unit="0"
hint.da.2.at="scbus0"
hint.da.2.target="12"
hint.da.2.unit="0"
hint.da.3.at="scbus0"
hint.da.3.target="14"
hint.da.3.unit="0"
hint.da.4.at="scbus0"
hint.da.4.target="1"
hint.da.4.unit="0"
