There's not that much to address. If you make the second drive your
slave on the primary IDE interface, it will be /dev/hdb. The first drive
on the secondary interface is /dev/hdc and the second is /dev/hdd. All
you need to do is partition the drive with fdisk, create the necessary
file system(s) with mke2fs and mount the partitions.
