That's Weird.
I had been under the impression that the IDE interfaces are now
logically presented as SCSI devices, so that
'Hard Drive A' becomes 'Scsi Device A'

That worked on my G3 iBook, but I also needed to change /dev/hda? ->
/dev/sda? in /etc/fstab to get /home to mount. Rather curiously, the
root partition did mount as /dev/hda3, even though there was no hda3 in
/dev (must be something at a lower level).
