I have installed a second Sata drive and installed Linux on it.
To have linux recognize the drives go into the bios setup at boot by pressing
the del key and set the bios to raid. Exit and save the bios setting. As the
computer reboots showing the Intel logo, press the F8 key, after a second or 2
a menu will
be displayed witch allows you to select the Sata drives or CDrom to boot from.
I have the original Xp OS on Sata 1 and Linux on Sata 2, best of both worlds.
Linux Fdisk will see the Sata drives only if the Bios has been set to raid.
Good Luck
