Boot order is 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15.
But you can tell the adaptec BIOS to ignore some SCSI ids.

edit the disklabel of the new disk (disklabel -i) and create a new partition
of type '4.2BSD'. Then use newfs to create a filesystem, and
add it to /etc/fstab, in a similar way to /usr
Then use 'mount /usr2' if you don't want to reboot.
