Well i think that you have a problem with the install
the second HD is called hdb in Linux.  If you know
which of the hdf5 through hdf8 is the root file then
you can edit /etc/lilo.conf to indicate that. Once you
edit the lilo.conf file REMEMBER to type lilo so that
it will update. Your lilo.conf is currently pointing
to hdb.
Hope this helps.
