Yes, that helps... change the primary and master and slave to "auto"
or, better yet, if your bios has it, use the "autoconfigure harddisks"
option.  That will try to figure out what you have, and then set things
accordingly, that saves a few bootup seconds later on :).  Oh, it will
ask you what mode the harddrive is, I believe you want LBA mode.
