I suspect your initrd is (mistakenly) loading ide-scsi. I believe the was a short time when a bug in mkinitrd would load it when it shouldn't. You could try booting with the kernel option for making ide-scsi ignore hda, or you can try regenerating the initrd and see if it does something smarter this time. The initrd should NOT be loading ide-scsi so that is what the problem is. You could add your current hd controller and the ide-cd drivers to /etc/mkinitrd/modules and then regenerate the initrd and hopefully on next boot it will be better behaved since those drives should then load first.
