James,
Explain "the Ultra ATA bus isn't showing up" please. Where isn't it showing - Apple System Profiler or???.
Are you using an Ultra ATA PCI controller card or attempting to add a second drive as master/slave?
The later is usually not supported on those Macs and can also lead to data corruption, and the drive would have to be 128GB or less in size.
BTW: Many Macs have missing resistor holes, so I wouldn't assume that adding one will get things working. ;)
Have a look at the following sites for a start for more info on that Mac:

I'm repairing a Rev A B&W on which the Ultra ATA bus isn't showing up. A detailed inspection of the motherboard revealed what appears to be a missing resistor between the 40 pin connector and the bottom PCI slot. The resistor location is labelled R110. I need to know the value of the resistor so I can try replacing it.
If anyone has a motherboard they'd be willing to have a look at and let me know the value of it (the number on the top of the resistor), I would appreciate it.
TIA,
James
