I have an external firewire drive, plus a CD burner using ide-scsi 
emulation.  The CD burner is /dev/scd0 (really IDE/ATAPI on /dev/hdc).  
The FireWire drive is /dev/sda.  Sorry, I don't have any 'real' SCSI 
drives.  Hope this helps...

'ls /proc/scsi/sbp_2' gives me '0'.
'ls /proc/scsi/ide-scsi' gives me '1'.
