IDE is enabled - This has a CD Rom drive, a cd burner, and a zip drive.
Here is the output of fdisk -l:

And here is my grub device.map
(fd0) /dev/fd0
(hd0) /dev/sda
(hd1) /dev/sdb
And here is my grub.conf:
default 1
timeout 5
splashimage=(hd1,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Fedora Core (2.6.9-1.667smp)
root (hd1,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667smp ro root=/dev/sdb1 rhgb quiet
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.9-1.667smp.img

And when I turn off the rhgb quiet stuff, these are the last lines of the boot sequence before it fails (is there some way I can capture this to a file?):
