hd* are IDE interfaces. No SCSI is available from there.

I used to have support for both ide.cd and ide-scsi as modules.
I could load either of them automatically when accessing either ide or
scsi device. Because I practically only used the scsi one I now use
ide-scsi excluseively (cdrom uses scsi interface too).

Try to use ide-scsi only and try to renumber your scsi host interfaces
so that adding and removing devices happens only on the second host.
