Dana,
Please post a copy of /etc/fstab (or mail it privately), so
that we can see where the install put your linux system.
/etc/lilo.conf would also be good.

That would typically be:
other = /dev/hda1
The second hard drive should show up as hdb, and its
partitions as hdb1, hdb2, etc. Did Windows see the second hard drive
before you did the install? Did you go into the BIOS setup after you
installed it to enable it (not always necessary, modern BIOSes have an
"AUTO" setting that works reliably with modern hard drives - the proof
of the pudding is to watch the BIOS messages fly by during boot to see
if it is reporting both hard drives.)
I'm concerned that the second hard drive may not have been
showing up, and that you might have let the installation write linux
on the only drive that it could find, overwriting Windows, and it sounds
as though you weren't ready to do without Windows. You did do a complete
backup before you installed, didn't you?
Bill
