You may have another problem, in that the boot floppies have more than one scsi controller driver installed, and adaptec controllers sometimes get screwed up by the probing for other controllers. If this happens then install a minimal system on the ide drive, build a custom kernel that supports scsi, then enable the scsi controller and move the system to the scsi hd. This is what I had to do on a system here (had to borrow an ide cd rom until the scsi system was up so I could then use the scsi cd rom!)
