Beats me. The mkinitrd script contains fairly involved detection heuristics for the root filesystem drivers. They use the /proc filesystem repeatedly, so the problem may be due to your first initrd being built with a 2.4 kernel running and the order of the controllers reversed. If you find a patch that fixes this, send it to the maintainer.
Actually, the "heuristic" for IDE disks is to load every IDE controller driver it knows, and then load the 'ide-detect' module. For SCSI controllers it's a bit more discerning, but not for IDE.
