[LUNI] Sanity check

[Mike Scott]

Thanks, I'll add that option.  Actually I think I caught it early
enough.
It will run for a couple of days, then freeze.
The LED stays lit and DLGDIAG reports no drive.
If I power cycle the system, it comes back for a couple of days.
I can run an entire surface scan without error, so the copy should work.
