This applies to any board with multiple controllers, be they onboard or
added.
The system BIOS must be used to set Which controller is to be used as
boot device.
The default will always be set to ide0.
And as Ray noted the designation for the second controller in the BIOS
is normally SCSI and or Raid.
BTW Ray I have a Dragon+ on this system with all hds connected to the
ATA100 controller.
System BIOS is set to boot SCSI/ATA100 and linux has no problem with it,
