Problem solved! What you have to do is enable Plug and Play bios
support; this could be done with that SCSI-select utility that comes up
what you press ctrl-A when it's first detected (it you don't have that
it'll probably be a jumper).
I did this, and it works fine now. The detected takes somewhat longer,
though (and results with a message like, "SCSI ID automatically
assigned"); *shrug*.
