A boot problem

I am working on a system that has both SCSI and IDE drives.

I've been working on getting Fedora to recognize the SCSI controller. Fedora
is loaded on the IDE drive. I have been booting from it for some time.
Finally the system recognizes the SCSI controller.

Now some weirdness...

The BIOS boots the IDE Drive. GRUB starts the boot process from the IDE
drive. Somewhere along the way it switches to the first SCSI drive, which
has on old version of Linux on it. It gets real messy from there on.

I can't seem to find a reference on how to control the boot process to
prevent this.

Any help is appreciated.

Mike
