scsi as hda

[Marcel Kunath]

Yeah well the machine is half way around the world but I am pretty certain it
is a scsi drive because it also has a scsi scanner attached to it. The
controller is an aha152x. Does this always load as module? It doesn't show up.

It's a very old machine with LX440B motherboard/chipset. It's darn confusing.

On the one hand I trust my friend to be able to differentiate a scsi from ide
drive but on the other hand it showing up as ide drive makes me wonder....

Well its time to take another trip down under and check it out =)
