No, both IDE.  The primary master is win2000, the secondary master is CDROM
and secondary slave is Linux.  I only just found that out (freind is
installing it at home).  I have advised him to put the Linux disk as Primary
slave for a start.  Adding the line:

disk=/dev/hdd bios=0x80

to lilo.conf seemed to work with the disks in their current configuration
(from some random help page on the net), but I am not too sure why.  We will
see what happens when they move the disk to primary slave.

Will.
