Sure, I know that. I only wasn't sure in this special case where the original 
attachment was at scsi*.

Do I understand that correctly that if I configure
	scsibus0 at mpt0
	scsibus1 at mpii0
	scsibus* at scsi*
and use that on a machine that lacks both mpt and mpii, but has mfii,
then mfii0 will get scsibus2?

Yes, I recall that. I started using NetBSD (1.4.x?) on ELCs and a
SPARCstation 1.
