Turned out to be a bad scsi cable. Suprised the heck out of me, since the
same cable was what connected the minitower to a different box 3/4 months
ago. I guess if you let cables sit around un-used for a while, they start to
feel dejected and stop working.
We could see the disks using "probe-scsi-all" at the "ok" prompt. Sun said
that if you seen them there but get the parity errors during a reboot, it
points to a bad cable or bad terminator, or a bad mini-ower itself.

I have an Ultra-10 running Solaris 7 with a single internal 4GB disk.
Someone up above decided this box would server as the server for Solstice
Backup. So I quickly ran out of disk space.
The PCI cards are as follows
PCI 1 Ultra Scsi for tape library
PCI 2 Slot is empty
PCI 3 4 port lan card - currently un-used
PCI 4 SE Scsi for the new Mini Tower
I have an older minitower with two disks in it (scsi-id 2 & 3) (both
ST34371WC disks) that I want to add.
If I "boot -r" to make it go out and discover the disks, I get the following
errors messages continiously untill I un-cable the disks and do a normal
boot. The guy I got the disks from swears they were previously working on a
users Sparc-5.
