Installing a second IDE Ultra 5

I have installed a second hard drive in my Ultra5 box. I have tried to boot up from the second hard drive, but keep getting errors. I then swapped the cables across and installed the o/s on the second hard drive. And then tried to boot from it, still no luck.

What I would like to do is be able to boot from one of the H/D, but able to use the second hard to safe data and shared folders. As you can if you are on a Windows Servers. I hope this makes sense.

I haven't tried Soltice s/w .....yet.

Can anyone help or advise???
