Amos sure it is right, he would have connected the new drive to the 2nd controller, otherwise Bios would list it on the first one.

The mode LBA etc is not relevant at this point since you have not managed to write the boot sectors.

Let the Bios boot up deal do its stuff just make sure you are not trying to connect both a CD/DVD and HD on the same address - ie both of the set to master!

If in doubt dont turn on until you find out which is which. The HD will have a little picture on the label showing you where the jumper is and what it should be for SLAVE
