Rodney is still having a problem:
[color=red]I booted up with the live CD and ran Gparted but it did not recognize the 2nd disk, only the original. I then rebooted into Ubuntu normally and reran cat /esc/fstab and then ran sudo fdisk -l and got the following results: [/color]
george@george-desktop:~$ cat /etc/fstab

[color=red] I think the fdisk is recognizing the second disk but how do I make that second disk recognized, mounted and useful? How do I talk to it? Thanks [/color]
