Still might be a problem with what PDC thinks is "scsi" in this
case.  scsi.6.0 means "target 6 on the scsi bus."  Since you have
two SCSI busses (the internal fw and the external) it might be
confused about what bus it's talking to.  As Grant suggested, 
"sea scsi" (or just "sea") should help.

Yes, you want the IPL on there.  IPL means "stop when you get to
the IPL (initial program loader)".  Without the IPL it's expecting
your IPL program to be ISL with an AUTO boot file to boot hp-ux.
