I haven't created a new disk in a while, but once you boot off a floppy or 
(being careful) adding the new disk to the chain... Use the Advance Dsik 
Utilities program from sys 6.0.1 to initialize and partition your new disk.

Somewhere in some ProDOS and SmartPort manuals and technotes defines the 
exacty assignment order, 
http://web.pdx.edu/~heiss/technotes/pdos/tn.pdos.20.html
but using my system for an example I've got 6 32MB ProDOS volumes and one 
HFS 139MB volume... assigned as follows (along with the ram disks)
(further reference my SCSI card is in slot 1)

/C1 = S1, D1
/C2 = S1, D2
/RAM = S3,D2
/C3 = S4, D1
/C4 = S4, D2
/C5 = S2, D1
/C6 = S2, D2
/RAM5 = S5,D2
3.5 floppy = S5,D1
