Even though SCSI Probe is called what it is, it'll mount IDE drives
too, as long as they're working correctly.  I don't know if this
just happened or whether it was done for backward compatibility.
If the drive won't mount with SCSI Probe then not only is it not
bootable but it's broken.  See if Drive Setup will admit it exists.
