This is a consequence of moving aic7xxx to the new PCI model. We no-longer control the detection order, we get probed in the order that the PCI subsystem decides. In your case, it must have decided to detect the external card first. The PCI subsystem pulls a few tricks to try to prevent this, but most of them rely on ACPI I think ... I assume this isn't an ACPI system?
