Are you saying that when you boot fbsd with both drives, the probe msgs
don't mention the scsi controller nor the scsi drive? Is it a on mother-
board controller or a scsi controller card; what kind (eg chip set)

hint: leave the root (/) partition on the ide drive.

I believe once you get the custom install working to label and slice your
scsi drive, you will have no trouble installing X from there. Hang in there.
