hde: no esponse (status = 0xfe)

[David Kistner]

When I boot by Fedora Core-1 machine the system has always hung for a 
number of seconds during the process:
hde: no response (status = 0xfe)
hdg: no response (status = 0xfe)

I Googled these messages and it sounds like a SATA issue with my Abit 
NF7-S.  I'm not using the SATA, only PATA for two hard drives along with 
a CDrom burner.  Anyway, I Googled and found the following 
recommendation to solve this:

 >> Add the following parameter to your kernel line in lilo/grub:
 >> hdg=none
 >> and it'll happily ignore hdg on startup. :)

I tried putting this line into my /boot/grub/grub.conf file but it 
didn't help.  I thought maybe I'm putting it in the wrong place.  Here's 
a copy of my grub.conf file......where should I place hdg=none and 
hde=none?  Or is there something else I should be doing?
