There are two hard drives.  The slave has gentoo and win2k.  GRUB
seems to work fine, windows boots fine.

IDE (or rather PATA now) devices on linux are named in order of the
channel then master/slave device, so:

hda: master on first PATA channel
hdb: slave on first PATA  channel
hdc: master on second PATA channel
hdd: slave on second PATA channel
hde: master on third PATA channel
hdf: slave on third PATA channel
...

So if it is slave on the primary channel, hdb4.  If it is slave on the
secondary channel, hdd4.
