OK, the problem is that ide-probe isn't loaded at this point in time
so there is nothing for ide-scsi to use.  Perhaps this is something
that modprobe could do by default.

Try

pre-install ide-scsi modprobe -k ide-probe-mod

You will need to run update-modules and then regenerate the initrd image by

mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd.img-<version> /lib/modules/<version>

and run lilo if you use that.
