Having some problems booting up Linux... it fails (or just keeps on going forever) on the Partition Check for the first IDE HDD, which has Windows on it. If I disconnect it and boot off the second HDD, then everything is fine.

I've tried fdisk/format/re-ghost of the first HDD, ran Norton through it and everything seems fine. Any ideas? I wouldn't mind just skipping the check on the disk, but I don't know how to override the kernel startup on that.
