Because you left the scsi-emulation as boot parameter. But it is badly
broken in 2.6.X and Linus fully recommends to *not* use it or fix it.
I happily removed it and once you do, your links don't go to some sc* any
more, but directly to hd*.
Very logical, you don't emulate scsi (a whole stack); and so - at least on
the long term - we should be faster, have fewer 'buffer low', etc.
