to translate Matt's pseudocode for your exact system:

machine:~# sudo grub
grub> root(hd0,0)   # replace with appropriate numbers for your /boot
grub> setup(hd1)    # put stages 1 and 1.5 on the second BIOS disk
grub> quit          # done


I have had to actually pull the first drive and run grub from the
install/rescue CD to make this work. That's why I wanted to do it on
Sat. If the above commands don't work it's not a big deal. If the
first drive fails at some point you can do it then to make the system
bootable. Nothing is hurt by leaving it the way it is.
