The drive letter designation is:
for ide:
primary master: hda
primary slave: hdb
secondary master: hdc
secondary slave: hde

SCSI:
-based on scsi id #, typically 0 boots.
id: 0 sda
id: 1 sdb
id: 2 sdc
id: ...
(without considering LUN's)

I'm not sure if you miss an ID#, does the device letter skip, probably not. I 
expect it just goes numericly, but not requireing sequenqial id#'s.
