Hi Terrance,
Have you tried taking the 4 gig disk out? Probably it will not make a
difference, because anytime you install a new OS  a "boot-record' ' is
created and read at each subsequent boot up. 

Actually I am planning to shift from FC to debian via the Oralux
installation route. So I would like to ask a few things.

Did you do a knoppix-type install or a debian-type? I believe the
latter is preferrable, but needs the help of a sighted person.

I would welcome suggestions about what I am planning to do from other
people on the list who have successfully done a hard disk install.

Cheers.
