assuming your fw was runnig fine .. until you added your new drive
a) make sure you have the same disk speed drive on the same ide cable
- do NOT mix-n-match ata33 w/ ata66 w/ ata100 w/ ata133
- do NOT mix-n-match 2MB disk buffer w/ 8MB disk buffers
b) do NOT use the silly 40 conductor ( ata-33 ) cables
- use the thin 80conductor cable ( ata66/100/133 )
take out sharp bends out of your cables
as has been suggested earlier, make sure you have enabled the
ide/ata chipset on your motherboard for the kernel you're using
