depending on the kernel ...

if you config'd hdc=ide-scsi...  and you unplug the cdrw and insert a hd,
than sometimes the hd is NOT recognized ... and vice versa
	- change lilo/gurb to boot the other kernel options for hdc
	depending on what you have plugged into hdc

2.4.23cdrw -- cdrw  on hdc  with "hdc=ide-scsi"
2.4.23   ---- 3rd disk on hdc
