Your problem looks like you've set the scsi id of the device to the scsi
id of the controller (probably 7).
During the selection phase, the initiator set the data bus to:
(1<<7) | (1<<target_id) or something like that.
In this situation, the target 7 always determines it is selected,
regardless the actual scsi id the controller wants to select.
