Summary:                    No choice given to partition 2nd SCSI device.
Description: 
System is all scsi including the cdrom drive. The drivers are aic7xxx and
ips. Those work fine. When the install process gets to partitioning I am
presentled only with /dev/sda as a choice which I am able to partition. 

Moving on to select target partitions, /dev/sdb and /dev/sdb1 along with
those of /dev/sda are the choices. I don't think it should be showing
/dev/sdb really. That could be confusing to some.

I had to run cfdisk /dev/sdb from shell to partition that drive.

I should note - aic7xxx == /dev/sda and ips == /dev/sdb

With the installer sitting at Step 3 to partition disks. Catting
/proc/partitions shows;
