Solution: Pretend it's all one bus and give everything a unique SCSI ID. Or, just don't 'upstage' the boot disks (with a device of the same ID on a lower-numbered bus). (Bad news if you were hoping to have eight or more different startup disks...)
The classic MacOS doesn't track bus numbers internally anyway. It's just a fundamental issue with the SCSI manager implementation that Apple used. It only knows about device IDs. Since the ROM includes chunks of the MacOS to do its own work, the limitation carries over for the boot sequence.
