The promise controller is handled as a scsi controller too. So you
have 2. I do not know if you use the promise controller.

Why do you have to boot on the Yamaha ? Isn't just seeing it the
problem.

I have heard that with 1004x bios there is a problem with second ide
on promise. It should be solved by using the Juggernaut bios's
http://members.tripod.de/Juggernaut/

He has 2: 1003e for not using promise and booting fast (I use it)
and 1003e2 with the promise controller.
