If you cannot even boot correctly, check your jumper settings (master/slave) on the drives, also, even if your drives are set correctly with the jumpers, your BIOS, if not set for auto on the ide channels, may be set for the previous drive. That drive being hdb, would not only have to have the jumper set to slave but the other drive, hda, would have to be set as master. But since your other hdb drive boots ok, I would check the BIOS.<BR>

No, that's the step I'm trying to get to, but 1) I can't even boot
normally when I put it in as the second (unmounted) drive and 2) I'm not
sure exactly what commands/procedure to use to do that. I knew how to
do it in Windoze, but this is the first time for Linux.
