Well what does the partitioning on the SCSI disk look like?

It's odd for the system to boot into the HDA device using hd[0,#] AND hd[1,#] 
even if hd[1,#] was incorrect for the SCSI device, it should give you a can't 
find error, devices 0 AND 1 shouldn't work for the same OS in any case.

If we're gonna help you with that we may need to see what you put for the Win 
98 entry as well as the partiton structure for your SCSI device

Another member mentioned the command line interface for grub to see what it 
sees, I am not certain of this command myself, but have you attempted to 
research this or menu.list configurations? What have you found??

Subject: Re: can grub on one disk boot OS on another disk?

I use (hd1,0), it doesn't work
It boot Windows in hda instead
I try by adding

map (hd0) (hd1)

or

map (hd1) (hd0)

Both don't work.

The hd[#,#] doesn't refer to the device type (i.e. scsi disk sda) grub operates 
BEFORE the OS and so that doesn't come into play.

If your IDE device is hd[0,#] than your SCSI device is going to be hd[1,#]

Obviously you must substitute the second # with the partition number your Win 
98 OS is on.

(Not sure what to snip. so haven't.)
This may be my stupidity, but shouldn't a scsi disk be referred to as sdx? (Where x is a number, like 0 or 1.)
