That does seem like odd results.

How many disks do you have installed besides the OS?

Do you have all the dependencies required by the adding a second drive to your HDA installed?

I have not see this sort of behavior in the past. Might be worth trying to find the UUID for the drive and doing the manual disk mount option in the wiki.

Ok, so what are you asking?

Typically the OS hard drive will be assigned as /dev/sda and any others after will be /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc, etc.

I am not sure I understand what you are asking here.
