Dual Boot Q4OS Aquarius 5.8 with Wary Puppy 5.5; IDE and SCSI drives

I am a Linux novice.

I set up Q4OS Aquarius 5.8 alongside Wary Puppy 5.5.  Both are 32-bit, as the computer is an old Dell Precision 420 desktop with a Pentium III 1 GHz CPU, NVidia 6200 GPU, and 2 GB ECC RDRAM.  Wary Puppy ran fine from the installation DVD, but after installation on an SCSI drive, the Grub Menu entry for Wary Puppy is listed as unknown and apparently points to the wrong drive.  I installed Grub Customizer.

Can someone suggest how to modify the Q4OS Grub menu so I can choose Wary Puppy from the boot menu and start the boot process for Wary Puppy?

I've attached "lsblk -f" output.  I am limited to three attachments.  I cannot use a modern browser on the Dell Precision 420 to cut and paste from the Grub.  I will try to attach the necessary ones.  Let me know if you need something else.
