I'm interested in helping you out Rollin. My workstation is based
on (the rather broken out of the box) Turbolinux 6.0 .

OK. Question 1: when you say 'having my primary drive bootable', do you
mean you installed a linux bootloader onto the MBR or do you mean you
set the bootable flag in fdisk?

You may need to reconfigure your bootloader (lilo). Have you edited
lilo.conf? (Hmm, me thinks the installer automatically sets one, considers
cylinder limits, kernel options etc.)
Probably you will want to reboot using the rescue/install disks that
come with the distro. It's a little tricky, but if this is your situation
we'll get at the /etc/lilo.conf file and edit it up a bit.
