Jumping in the middle here, so pardon me if I'm way off. Is your Seagate ST33210A an IDE drive?

I think that is the problem right there. /dev/hdd would be secondary slave IDE I think. Can anything (maybe the BIOS) find the drive? If you can run without the CD-ROM temporarily, how about setting the Seagate as primary slave in place of the CD-ROM which is now /dev/hdb Again, I'm sorry if I'm way off on this, I just finally saw something I thought I might be able to answer.
