I have a motherboard with two SATA chips (Nvidia nForce 4 and
Silicon Image SiI 3114) running Linux 2.6.14.3. The drivers are
SCSI_SATA_NV and SCSI_SATA_SIL, both compiled-in.                          
                                                                               
Ports on the SiI 3114 controller are assigned scsi0 through
scsi3 and ports on the nForce4 chip are assigned scsi4 through
scsi7. Is there any way to control the order so that SCSI_SATA_NV
gets scsi0-scsi3 and SCSI_SATA_SIL gets scsi4-scsi7 instead ?

Use modules,

But then wouldn't I have to use initrd if / is on a raid device ?

otherwise its defined by link order...

OK. This did the trick :

diff -ur --exclude '*.o' linux-2.6.14.3/drivers/scsi/Makefile linux-2.6.14.3-nf4-first/drivers/scsi/Makefile
