second hard disk trouble

[David Lomas]

I've got RH 6.0 and an updated 2.2.9 kernel on my TP770X. I'm trying to
add a second 14.1GB disk which is in the ultra-bay. The kernel doesn't
seem to recognise it properly during bootup. The (what I think are)
relevant parts from `dmesg` are:

PIIX4: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 39
PIIX4: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
    ide0: BM-DMA at 0xfcf0-0xfcf7, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:pio
    ide1: BM-DMA at 0xfcf8-0xfcff, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:pio
hda: IBM-DYLA-28100, ATA DISK drive
hdc: IBM-DCYA-214000, ATA DISK drive
ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14
ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15
hda: IBM-DYLA-28100, 7815MB w/459kB Cache, CHS=1058/240/63, UDMA
hdc: IBM-DCYA-214000, 7559MB w/420kB Cache, CHS=16383/15/63, UDMA

I'm not sure if the CHS values are correct, but the size certainly isn't
- its smaller than the 8GB drive on the primary! I'm worried that the
Heads value is so low - this looks more like the actual value rather
than the 'large' value that should maybe be there. fdisk (under linux)
seems happy to partition it to 7.5GB, but I didn't write it back. Any
ideas what I'll need to do to fix this?

Thanks,

Dave.
