We have a 958 and it is true that these boxes (and probably the others you
listed as well) cannot use a SCSI device as LDEV 1, but we have also gotten
assurance from HP that both 5.0 and 5.5 versions of MPE/iX will consume less
then 670MB of LDEV1 space.  I haven't heard anything about releases beyond
5.5 yet.
