Description Gary W. Swearingen 2002-03-16 02:20:01 UTC
The cd(4) manual refers to "target" in the synopsis, without giving a
clue as to what that is or how the target number should be chosen.

It's probably common knowledge to SCSI experts, but I've been using it
occasionally for a long time and didn't know the term.  Some will
eventually figure it out by reading the "LUN-based" section or a certain
part of the scsi(4) manual, but it shouldn't be that hard.
================

Fix: 

Add a new second paragraph to the "Description":

    The "target" string is followed by the device's standard SCSI device
    ID number.  The "unit" string is followed by the logical unit number
    of one of the SCSI device's sub-devices (if any) or zero.
How-To-Repeat: n/a
================
