After going through the debug log and scratching my head for quite some
time. I found the following:
The problem was with this block move:
lsi_scsi: SCRIPTS dsp=0fae8e50 opcode 01000028 arg 00f63c40
lsi_scsi: DMA addr=0x00f63c40 len=36
The number of bytes to be transferred (len) should be 40 which corresponds
to the block transfer of length 0x28 (from opcode 01000028). Instead we
have a length of 36 (0x24). The code responsible for this is (in
'lsi_do_dma'):
if (count > s->current_dma_len)
count = s->current_dma_len;
Basically we're overwriting the length 40 with the value 36 which I
think we just left over in that variable from an earlier transfer. In my
patch below I initialize s->current_dma_len to s->dbc before we begin
the DMA transfer during Data In phase.
The attached patch gets Openserver 5.0.5 past the hardware detection
(and it lists the hard drive to boot, woohoo). It appears to stop a
little while later (doesn't seem SCSI related), but it's been so long since
I've booted Openserver I'm not sure what's supposted to happen after the HW
detection using the boot/root disks.
Props go to Craig Ringer for the initial post and the code that he posted
some of which is in this patch.

Raise UDC (Unexpected Disconnect) when a large enough number of
instructions has been executed by the SCRIPTS processor. This "solution"
is much simpler than temporarily interrupting execution.
This remedies the situation with Windows which downloads SCRIPTS code
that busy loops on guest main memory. Their drivers _do_ handle UDC
appropriately (at least XP and 2003).
It would be nicer to actually detect infinite loops, but until then,
this bandaid seems acceptable.
Since the situation seems to be rare enough, raise the number
of instructions to 10000 (previously 1000).
Three people other than myself had success with this patch.
