You should be able to get at it via the uk device.  I think that under the
old SCSI layer, the uk device attached to all devices that didn't have a
"normal" device configured.

I would imagine, though, that your mpeg decoder is probably a processor
target device.  So try configuring the pt0 device in your kernel.
