scsi cd burner problem

I added a SCSI controller and SCSI CD-RW drive to my DELL.

For some reason the new controller is showing up as scsi bus 2 instead of scsi bus 0. The OS seems to think I already have a scsi controller for scsi1 and scsi2:
[jackal@localhost jackal]$ dmesg |grep scsi
scsi0 : ata_piix
scsi1 : ata_piix
scsi2 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 6.2.36

So I modprobed the aic7xxx drive and I can see the drive.

This is where it gets odd, when I scsi_info the file device it says 0,6,0 but when I -scanbus it's 2,6,0:


[jackal@localhost jackal]$ scsi_info /dev/sg0
SCSI_ID="0,6,0"
MODEL="MATSHITA CD-R   CW-7502"
FW_REV="4.17"

[jackal@localhost jackal]$ cdrecord -scanbus |grep CD
Linux sg driver version: 3.1.25
cdrecord: Warning: using inofficial libscg transport code version (schily - Red Hat-scsi-linux-sg.c-1.75-RH '@(#)scsi-linux-sg.c        1.75 02/10/21 Copyright 1997 J. Schilling').
        2,6,0   206) 'MATSHITA' 'CD-R   CW-7502  ' '4.17' Removable CD-ROM


So which is it? 2,6,0 or 0,6,0 ?

And why am I on scsi2 if I don't have any other scsi controllers installed?
